The United States Constitution gives us the right to bear arms. Does a state Constitution override this? Since when?
The Second Amendment protects the right to arms, it does not “give” it to us.
State constitutions provide double protection. State Constitutions can be more protective than the national Constitution.
The Federal government has specific powers. State Governments and the people have all the powers not given to the Federal government in the Federal Constitution.
State Government powers are usually defined in State Constitutions.
Rights protected by the Federal and State Constitutions are defined in both, and often differ, with considerable overlap.
The right to bear arms is inherent in your person and are inalienable. The constitution merely enumerates those rights as specifically prohibited from being infringed.
