Missouri Looks To Nullify All Federal Gun Laws

Hmmmm (Washington Times) In Missouri, legislation has been introduced to nullify every federal gun control measure on the books, “whether past, present or future.” The 2nd Amendment Preservation Act, introduced as Senate Bill 613 (SB613) for the 2014 legislative session by Sen. Brian Nieves, follows on the heels of a failed effort to do the same in 2013. The bill states, 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, 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. State employees would be barred from enforcing federal firearms laws that violate the act, and could even see agents, including federal agents, who violate the law jailed. This is interesting in that the bill is meant to stand up for State’s Rights, as portrayed by that pesky 10th Amendment, and reduce the power of the Federal government, as the system was meant to be.
