Default Missouri Set to Nullify All Federal Gun Laws

Quote:
It looks like Missouri is about to order the federal government to butt out in terms of gun laws. The state legislature appears to have the votes to override the governor's veto of a bill that nullifies all federal gun legislation, reports the New York Times
Time and courts will tell...

In other news, BO blocked Re-imports of military surplus firearms.

Hope you didn't want an M1 Garand, Cause you know, their used every day in the commission of a crime. It's also amazing the Liar-in-Chief can make time for this when he's got much bigger fish in the frying pan.

Why not? Washington and Colorado just did that with the dope laws. Looks like a win for the states.

Well...

Drugs are an entirely different issue for me...but if my state wants to nullify Federal Gun Laws they have my full support.

What if your state decides to nullify the Federal Gun Laws and implement their own State Gun Laws that may be even more restrictive?

One begins to wonder. Then again, a Jr. Senator that never voted for much when he was present certainly is qualified to the run the country.

Proof that Obama isn't motivated by gun violence. Banning antique firearms that aren't being used in crimes or mass shootings only shows that the Democrats are out for nothing less than to completely take away the peoples right to keep and bear arms.

So this import legislation doesn't ban people from buying a M1 Garand, it doesn't ban people from owning one either.
The other piece of legislation only bans people from owning guns who are already banned from owning guns.
Its a conspiracy I tell ya.

Do you guys remember this?


What a liar he turned out to be too.

As an aside,
Harvard Study: No Correlation Between Gun Control and Less Violent Crime
Quote:
A Harvard Study titled "Would Banning Firearms Reduce Murder and Suicide?" looks at figures for "intentional deaths" throughout continental Europe and juxtaposes them with the U.S. to show that more gun control does not necessarily lead to lower death rates or violent crime.
Link to actual study:
http://www.law.harvard.edu/students/...useronline.pdf

August might enjoy this:


Back on topic,
I can't imagine any state being successful in nullifying federal laws, however, I don't think this is the first, or only attempt. Regardless of chances of success, more states need to push back like this. The federal government has become entirely too over reaching and they always seem to want more.

EDIT:
Obama’s new executive order will kill the 110-year-old Civilian Marksmanship Program

My extreme dislike, is quickly turning into hatred.

As an aside,
Lets see, does the study use Kleck as a source?
Surprise surprise repeatedly, using a primary source which makes up "facts" makes the study questionable.
I see they also throw in the soaring "violent crime" figures in one location from after "shouting at someone" was reclassified as violent crime in the statistics from that location.

Edit;EDIT:
Obama’s new executive order will kill the 110-year-old Civilian Marksmanship Program
Pure baloney, restrictions on imports will not kill the program, banning all the guns would kill the program, but that ain't never going to happen is it.
