Missouri may have just made the most monumental step towards freedom and individual liberty since the signing of the Bill of Rights. In an upcoming vote by Missouris state senate, the state is expected to pass a bill that would nullify ALL Federal gun laws and regulations, and make enforcement of those laws by federal officers within the State of Missouri a criminal offense. Republicans control both U.S. Senate seats and more than two-thirds of the seats in both the Missouri House and Senate.
Like its predecessor, SB613, Bill SB367 and its companion, House Bill HB786, would prevent all state agencies and their employees from enforcing any federal law that infringes the Second Amendment in any way, including gun registrations, fees, fines, licenses and bans. Originally authored in 2014, a former version of the bill was also passed, but vetoed by then Missouri Governor Jay Nixon.
A stipulation of the newly passed bill states:
All federal acts, laws, executive orders, administrative orders, court orders, rules, and regulations, whether past, present, or future, which infringe on the peoples 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.
For added measure, SB367s authors went into great detail on what federal laws will be considered null and void and of no effect.
(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...

Don’t forget Columbia. They’re nuts too.
Lately, even St. Louis County has pretty much lost its mind.
Hopefully the “Better Together” monstrosity will wake the county up; but it may be too late.
I say allow urban freaks to override state firearms laws all they want, but don’t allow them any representation on such laws.
It really is time for some new and official political division in our country.
YES YES!
MAGA!!!!!
let’s restore our constitutional republic and dismantle as many of the unconstitutional federal “laws” and “regulations” and agencies as possible NOW!
The President has such a strong hand going forward I fear he will loose his momentum with these personal attacks, even as deserved as they are. We need the independent voters and these voters don’t like it. I talk with quite a few “unaffiliated” voters and they too are opinionated,and they have learned to support President, really like all he has done, but the personal attacks turn them off. He would be wise, IMO, to let others take on McCain’s ghost and Conner’s shadow in the media and internet.
McCain was a turncoat. He was in Hanoi and he was with the dossier, and who knows how many other times. Conner is just a pest like a sweat fly.
I’ve been thinking of leaving California and moving to Missouri this makes it all the better. I can’t wait to find that invisible house.
Why? Sanctuary cities and states are openly violating federal law. Precedent has been clearly set by the left.
And they hate the rest of us for knowing it also.
And they will use every weapon in their grasp to stop us.
sorry - I posted this on the wrong story.
> thinking of leaving California and moving to Missouri
You have to swear not to vote leftist, ever, on pain of ejection.
You should not even vote here for ten years, till you learn the ropes.
Too many places have already been Californicated.
Sorry.
re:
How?
Two words: Remember. Arizona.
When they passed a low to enforce federal statutes on immigration, Obama sued them; how long do you suppose they’ll tolerate a state law attempting to invalidate a federal one?
Recall slavery used to be law of the land, and that was “over-turned”.
Funny...
Looks pretty enforceable to me.
[ You are aware that Josey Wales was a fictional movie character aren’t you? ]
No way!!
“No state can over rule the federal government - there was a war about this and the state lost”
I do not think the states will lose this time. They have the lsrgest army in the world....gunowners....and with Trump in or out of power. Most of the Federal military and police on their side.
Gun laws Oregon is proposing are unconstitutional but will be enforced
> Funny
Thanks for proving my point. Stay there.
@PIF
We still believe in the tenth Amendment. Maybe it’s a hopeless belief, but there are legal standings, provided the Supremes agree. First call Obama, and ask him politely not to interfere in this action.
you’re joking right?
WHOO HOO!!!!!!!
States rights.
The Second Amendment should help in this case.
I don’t see how the federal government can make any guns laws considering they are forbidden to by the Constitution.
I mean, I know they do anyway, but it should have been stopped long ago by the states putting their collective foots down.
