This has nothing to do with federal laws, and certainly nothing to do with the current federal administration. It's all about your local state and city laws. Every state and locality has its own laws on trapping and discharge of firearms. Most of these laws have been on the books for decades.We had NO idea it was illegal to trap the raccoon. Is it legal to shoot in city limits? Obama admin. is crazy about gun control. Better to call an expert. Don't want to be arrested for using your gun.
