8:43Now Playing"It's no secret that Republicans by and large are not fans of President Obama's new push for laws aimed at reducing gun violence. Most in Washington are using traditional means to oppose him — vowing to vote against his legislation in Congress, for example.
But out in the states, some Republicans have a better idea: they've decided to secede from any new federal regulations related to guns they deem to have gone too far. This applies especially to Obama's executive actions on guns, which some conservatives have suggested could be grounds for Obama's impeachment."*
