No mention of federal overreach under the 2nd and 10th amendments.

The First Amendment problems with the second bill are mentioned.

The federal government isn't granted general police powers by the Constitution. States retain that power.

It is widely acknowledged by lawmakers, including Morris, that the bill is unconstitutional because it violates the Supremacy Clause, which says federal law trumps state law

Absolute crapolla.

Lefties like to think the clause means that the states are totally subservient to the federales. Really gets their panties in a twist when a state stands up to their grossly unconstitutional power grabs.

Domestic police powers reside with the states for the most part.

Four gun bills, including one that purposely flouts federal law, are a step closer to becoming law after passing a Senate committee Tuesday. The bills now head to the Senate floor for further debate.

Onoz! Because as we know, the feds are NEVER wrong. (Except if a Republican is president, then all the libs suddenly discover states rights)

It is widely acknowledged by lawmakers, including Morris, that the bill is unconstitutional because it violates the Supremacy Clause...

Then those legislators need to edumacate themselves a bit. The supremacy clause only applies to proper, Constitutional mandates by the feds. The laws the states are moving to nullify are at least arguably unConstitutional. And saying "Take it to SCOTUS" is certainly a ridiculous position, because SCOTUS is actually a portion of one of the parties, and therefore if they rule in favor of that party, their ruling should be viewed as if it were written on toilet paper. In normal civil and criminal trials, they won't let you serve as a juror if you so much as KNOW any of the participants (not necessarily even one of the parties), so how can goobermint employees get more benefit of the doubt, how can they even get the SAME benefit of the doubt, as the man off the street?

Similar stuff happening here in Kansas. Leftie editors crapping their Depends about KS “defying” Holder.

For those that might not know, “nola.com” and “The Times-Picayune” are the New Orleans-area leftist, liberal rags.

New Orleans is about as gun-friendly as Chicago! The police chief, at the time of Katrina, declared a house-to-house search and seizure of any and all firearms, and arrest of those who resisted - even the legal gun owners - with the help of the National Guard (which was NOT the LA National Guard, if you check the videos).

Louisiana is making some headway in pro-gun legislation, and yes, it is the supposed guarantors of the 1st Amendment, that, through their news writings, endeavor to make you, the free American, gun-less.

On a related note, the Oregon Senate tabled four bills which would have added significant burdens to gun owners in that state. It’s possible to revive them but not likely.
