Missouri state Sen. Eric Burlison (R-Battlefield) is pushing legislation to protect Second Amendment rights in the state by nullifying any gun control measures President Joe Biden might enact.

KMOX News Radio 1220 reports that Burlison’s legislation, Senate Bill 39, titled, “Second Amendment Protection Act.”

Missourinet noted that Burlison told fellow lawmakers the Act is designed to prevent in-state enforcement of “gun bans directly, magazine bans, attacks on private gun manufacturers, red flag laws, and restrictions on individual citizens from buying firearms.”

The Act declares “that federal supremacy does not apply to federal laws that restrict or prohibit the manufacture, ownership, and use of firearms, firearm accessories, or ammunition within the state because such laws exceed the scope of the federal government’s authority.”

It says that “no public officer or state or local employee has the authority to enforce firearms laws declared invalid by the act,” adding: “Any public officer or state or local employee who tries to enforce the firearms law declared invalid by the act or any person who acts under the color of law to deprive a Missouri citizen of rights or privileges ensured by the federal and state constitutions shall be liable for redress.”

  • This is an outstanding story about a Missouri county doing what will save the Nation, one county, and one state at a time together.

    I will try to post in the video section of the 'Actions' pulldown, if not linkable here.

  • Maybe we need to contact our state Senator and give them ideas about this.

  • This is a true patriot for trying to protect our rights from the Northern Aggressors from DC, Delaware, New York, and other Democrat states. More States must enact States Rights Law that prevents overreach from the Federalists, just like the War between the States, was fought.

  • All States need this...
