The Missoula City Council last night received a proposed ordinance that will likely put the western Montana council in the crosshairs of the Montana Shooting Sports Association (MSSA) because it allegedly won’t square with state statute, according to KECI News, the local NBC affiliate.
While challenging state law on gun regulation may seem stylish and “progressive” in Seattle, Washington, it just might not be greeted with zeal anywhere outside the Missoula city limits. At issue is a desire by members of the council to require background checks on all firearms transactions that occur inside the city, ostensibly closing the so-called “gun show loophole.” |

| The answer to this proposed ordinance should be proposed legislation to make it personally VERY expensive to violate preemption. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
