Senator Munzlinger's bill would "... charge any federal agent enforcing new federal gun laws with a felony."
That is starting to look a lot like nullification.
The constant overreach by the federal government may be reaching a different kind of cliff. For the better part of a century, the federal government has been able to bribe the states into cooperating with its encroachments by various programs that funnel revenues back to state and local agencies. If you think about it, that's exactly what "community organizers" do -- they organize bitch-moan-and-whine sessions to get their share of the redistributed federal
When it becomes apparent that Uncle Sugar is about tapped out, he may become markedly less popular.
It never ceases to amaze me that there are people who do not understand that a government's power is in its ability to tax. Police power, you say? No mun, no gun. Of course, the reverse is true also. If my neighbor is paying protection money, it sort of forces me to as well.
But anyway, another state senator, Kurt Schaefer -- good grief, he's from Columbia? -- says there is more to this whole thing:
Columbia Senator Kurt Schaefer says the argument is about more than guns. He says the real argument is about the rule of law. And he says the issue should not be debated emotionally. He says the state should resist any Second Amendment erosion because any erosion of one amendment means all amendments are vulnerable.
Well said, Senator Schaefer. Not everybody in Boone County is as stupid as Columbia Former Mayor-for-Life, Darwin "Reverse Evolution" Hindend, or Hindman, or whatever.
[Correction: I see that Columbia has a new mayor, Bob McDavid -- perhaps Darwin died. Have I mentioned that I hate Columbia? I hated it when I went to school there in the '70s, when I lived nearby in the early '80s, and when I lived nearby again around 2000. We haaaatttesss it!]
Again, if you are from Missouri, contact your senators and representatives and encourage them to RESIST!
