Gun Control Nullification Clears Kansas House

TNA.com and a bold step for a Red State: "On Thursday, March 14, the Kansas House of Representatives approved House Bill 2199, the Second Amendment Protection Act, which would nullify any new federal restrictions — passed either by Congress, presidential executive order, agency order, rule, or regulation — on firearms, magazines, and ammunition."

Magpul is about to move out of Colorado because of that state's liberal gun grabbing bullshit. Maybe they should look at moving to Kansas or Montana.

This will stand up in court.

How many public dollars will be spent on attorney for legislation that the proponents know will not pass judicial review, but will pander to the simpletons in order to get them re-elected?

When I want thoughtful understanding of constitutional law, I always seek out TKC blogs and posting from gear-heads of Clinton County.

States cannot pass laws nullifying federal laws. The country's reaction to Sandy Hook is to make guns more available?

Absolutely, and this issue was supposed to be settled after Jefferson and Madison failed with the Kentucky and Virginia resolutions, which proposed to give state lagislatures nullifcation powers, and with the Marbury v. Madison decision in which the Supreme Court ruled that the courts were the forum to decide the consitutionality of laws, not state legislatures.

But this whole notion persisted, which eventually led us to the Civil War. And even after that was fought with all the human suffering and loss of life this notion STILL persists that any state legislature can simply nullify any act of Congress that a majority of its members simply don't like.
