JEFFERSON CITY, MO. (KMOX) The Republican controlled Missouri House voted to put gun rights on the November ballot.
The resolution would establish a constitutional right to purchase and process ammunition. It would also permit the manufacturing of ammunition.
Republican Pacific Representative Paul Curtman says the bill protects the second amendment of the United States Constitution.
It creates a positive reinforcement for something that we already have, a natural right to protect our God given liberties, our right to life even.
Opponents of the bill voiced concerns about increased crime. Democratic St. Louis Representative Jamilah Nasheed says this legislation perpetuates crime.
The only thing you get out of a piece of legislation like this is death and destruction.
Democratic Troy Representative Ed Scheiffer says it protects the right to bear arms.
It protects everybody in this room and all our families the right to protect ourselves in our homes.
If this legislation is approved by the Senate, it would require voter approval.
Uhhhh... that would be a lie.
You know that the manufacturing of ammunition fall under the commerce clause and can therefore be regulated by the Feds.
Keep all the guns you want there just won’t be any ammo to feed them.
Takes two to catch me cause I'm gunna deny it!
Midway is in Missouri, so I wouldn’t be surprised if they were involved with this.
what makes you think they're going to not regulate bullets, powder and primers away?
Actually all they really need to regulate is the primers and what are you going to do?
Stockpile powder, primers, brass and rifle bullets.
Handgun bullets you can cast.
You can get a whole lot of shooting for a few hundred bucks of powder and primers.
Communist agenda dem, aka, a total tool.
. .
Somehow I don’t think your average gang banger re-loads their own.
Use my stockpile of more than 100K primers and 250 lbs of powder and a lifetime supply of brass....
Fvck the wannabe-dictators!
