Missouri Senate Votes to Nullify Federal Gun Control

[jimnyc]

Excellent! But how much weight does this carry? As far as I'm concerned, the states should have their say first, but I'm no legal scholar of course.

-----

A Missouri bill which seeks to nullify virtually every federal gun control measure on the books, “whether past, present or future,” passed the Senate Thursday. SB613 would ban the state from enforcing virtually all federal gun control measures, and includes criminal charges for federal agents attempting to violate the right to keep and bear arms in Missouri.

The measure passed 23-10.

SB613 counts as what could be the strongest defense against federal encroachments on the right to keep an bear arms ever considered at the state level. It reads, in part:

All federal acts, laws, executive orders, administrative orders, court orders, rules, and regulations, whether past, present, or future, which infringe on the people’s right to keep and bear arms as guaranteed by the Second Amendment to the United States I and Section 23 of the Missouri Constitution shall be invalid in this state, shall not be recognized by this state, shall be specifically rejected by this state, and shall be considered null and void and of no effect in this state.

Federal acts which would be considered “null and void and of no effect” include, but are not limited to:

(a) Any tax, levy, fee, or stamp imposed on firearms, firearm accessories, or ammunition not common to all other goods and services which might reasonably be expected to create a chilling effect on the purchase or ownership of those items by law-abiding citizens;

(b) Any registering or tracking of firearms, firearm accessories, or ammunition which might reasonably be expected to create a chilling effect on the purchase or ownership of those items by law-abiding citizens;

(c) Any registering or tracking of the owners of firearms, firearm accessories, or ammunition which might reasonably be expected to create a chilling effect on the purchase or ownership of those items by law-abiding citizens;

(d) Any act forbidding the possession, ownership, or use or transfer of a firearm, firearm accessory, or ammunition by law-abiding citizens; and

(e) Any act ordering the confiscation of firearms, firearm accessories, or ammunition from law-abiding citizens

States rights and the 2nd Amendment both say the state wins this one in court but we both know how the treasonous bastard obama ignores unfavorable court rulings don't we!
One of the greatest travesties of justice in this nation's history is the failure to impeach and then dethrone this usurping traitorous ffing bastard!
I truly believe that our Representative Republic is done for myself, in that this bastard got re-elected and can do as he pleases and get praised for it instead of being handcuffed and imprisoned for his obvious and deliberate treason!!!-Tyr

Supremacy Clause.

Or not. See above.

Funny how WE are to abide by ALL homosexual laws (that discriminate against the NATION, the Constitution, State Laws and our FOUNDING) yet THEY are more than willing to NOT abide by a mandate (from the SUPREME court) over the 2nd Amendment. Why should WE (if) THEY do not?!

Mississippi (The GREATEST and one of the most prosperously growing industrial State in the Union) has a bill that will hopefully pass that does NOT require ANY special permits, fingerprinting or other transgressions against our founding, the Constitution or common sense regarding gun laws (specifically on conceal carry / open carry). If passed, both conceal carry and open carry will be regarded as one and the same and will NOT be regulated (or infringe upon our RIGHTS as the Constitution clearly outlines for the 2nd Amendment).

I have said many times that the 2nd (IS) my conceal or open carry permit and I'll be damned if I am finger printed or have to "PAY" to protect my family.....isn't it the MOB that charges for "protection". Hell with any liberal or cop who does not follow the Constitution and I'm gonna have a big laugh at all my friends and family who have "registered" and have been fingerprinted like criminals.....when I will be free to do as AMERICANS were supposed to do.................................without charge or without being regulated unfairly. Even if this good, Mississippi law passes, I'm still going to fight against the homosexual agenda tooth and nail. If this good law fails (either in MO or MS) I'm gonna simply do as the left does....ignore THEIR laws and prejudice against REAL Americans.

Supremacy Clause.

Only applies to laws Congress has the authority to make.

And it has no authority whatsoever, to restrict or ban guns.

States will win... unless the courts ignore the Constitution. As they frequently do.

When the states started making marijuana legal in the face of Federal laws banning it, that may have been the first crack on a large dam.

It was one ares where the Fed had been usurping state power for a long time, since the Fed has no power to restrict or ban substances such as Marijuana, either.

You could make an argument that they could regulate marijuana that was in interstate commerce, since Congress does have the power to regulate interstate commerce. Whether that extends to banning the stuff completely, is a different question.

But they certainly have no power to ban MJ that was grown, processed, and consumed, all within the same state.

I'm pretty sure the reason the Fed didn't fight state laws in Colorado etc. making it legal there, was because they knew they didn't have the power... and didn't want that pointed out and ruled on in court.


Good for Missouri. They are in the same position regarding guns, as Colorado was regarding marijuana. The Fed govt has no authority to regulate either one. The Fed has already backed down on one. With that precedent set, might they eventually back down on guns, too?

Of course, there is no constitutional amendment forbidding any restrictions on marijuana, but there IS one forbidding regulation of guns. By any government, including state and local governments. But here it sounds like Missouri isn't making laws to restrict them, only laws saying they will not enforce Federal restrictions.

Supremacy clause does not and can not void the 2nd amendment.
If it could then both freedom of religion and freedom of speech are on the block to be chopped!
Logic, common sense, justice and the Rule of Law all say that you are wrong.
As do we gun owners.. -Tyr

I'm pretty sure that there are gun laws on the books at present that have passed Constitutional muster.

Of course the Supremacy Clause doesn't void 2A but until such time as Federal gun laws are ruled unconstitutional the SC will reign. The Constitution says I'm right.

That's one way to go when your Constitutional argument falls apart.

[Tyr-Ziu Saxnot]

That's one way to go when your Constitutional argument falls apart.

No argument fell apart, Supremacy clause does not void 2nd Amendment nor does it supersede it until a court decision, 2nd Amendment is established law "in standing" , new and illegal gun restrictions are not, THEY ARE JUST WORDS SPOKEN BY A LYING BASTARD AND A DAMN TRAITOR!!!
And guns were what King George met when he tried his tyranny, obama is worse than the king was.
As he is sworn by oath--- NOT TO DO WHAT HE IS DOING!
WE THAT ARE NOT STUPID, GULLIBLE, BRAINWASHED, LIBERAL AND OF A STUPID NATURE KNOW THIS-- OBVIOUS THAT YOU HAVENT A DAMN CLUE.-Tyr

Nobody said it did. Federal laws are supreme until judged unC. Besides, 2A is not really a law, it defines a right.

[Little-Acorn]

Does that mean you can't name one that doesn't violate the Constitution's flat ban on any gun regulations by government?

I'm not surprised.

Federal laws are supreme until judged unC.

Actually no-- they are not!!! Not when they come into direct and immediate action voiding the
the 2nd Amendment.
There is a reason that it was Amendment number TWO
There is a reason the Feds dont just say turn in your guns now!
Thats because the bastards would get the bullets first and at super sonic speed!
And thats exactly why the 2ND AMENDMENT WAS CREATED.
ALL THIS DAMN TRAITOROUS chipping away shit has to stop or else most likely a civil war will decide the case IMHO.
You should be denouncing the ffing black monkey in charge instead of trying to reason how its not that bad a thing he is doing....
He knows the -"death by a thousand cuts" method of achieving a goal.
The deceptive, cowardly little piece of lying shit. -TYR

.. FJ. In a case of Obama successfully circumventing the US Constitution (it seems to me that this is what he's striving for, on this issue) .. will we see you, finally, taking a stand against him, in defence of the Constitution ? Will you join with others here who'd want to see him made accountable for those actions ?

YES or NO ?
