Jay, it's my understanding that this law would make it a felony for a law enforcement officer to enforce any federal law that would ban semi automatic firearms or high cap magazines. Besides, in short, the 10th amendment grants powers not specifically granted to the federal government to the states or the people. Nowhere in the constitution does it grant the federal government the right to restrict gun ownership ect. Therefore the power still lies with the states.

It is pointless posturing. The Supremacy Clause of the Constitution clearly states that state laws cannot override federal ones.
"This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in pursuance thereof; and all treaties made, or which shall be made, under the authority of the United States, shall be the supreme law of the land; and the judges in every state shall be bound thereby, anything in the constitution or laws of any state to the contrary notwithstanding."

Pot is still illegal in Colorado and Washington based on federal law, but the DEA has simply chosen not to prosecute it. They could certainly change their minds, though, and the fact that there is no state law against it wouldn't matter.
Marriage, on the other hand, is a state issue. There are no federal laws regulating marriage, so the feds have no dog in that fight.

Greenhead --- Wrong!
The Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) (Pub.L. 104-199, 110 Stat. 2419, enacted September 21, 1996, 1 U.S.C. § 7 and 28 U.S.C. § 1738C) is a United States federal law that defines marriage as the legal union of one man and one woman for federal and inter-state recognition purposes in the United States. The law passed both houses of Congress by large majorities and was signed into law by President Bill Clinton on September 21, 1996. Under the law, no U.S. state or political subdivision is required to recognize a same-sex marriage from another state. Section 3 of DOMA codifies the non-recognition of same-sex marriages for all federal purposes, including insurance benefits for government employees, Social Security survivors' benefits, immigration, and the filing of joint tax returns.
