For now, the bill's top target is staying mum. FBI spokeswoman Kathleen Wright responded to a request for comment with a terse, "The FBI has no information to provide on this matter." But William Vizzard, a retired ATF agent who now teaches criminal justice at California State University-Sacramento, was more vocal. The bill, he says, amounts to "[g]randstanding that will be destructive to relations between state and federal law enforcement."
"If some yahoo sheriff tried" to enforce the measure, Vizzard says, "the federal courts will slap them down."
