St. Louis sues to block Missouri's new gun law

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

The city of St. Louis and St. Louis County on Monday filed a lawsuit seeking to overturn a law signed by Missouri Gov. Mike Parson (R) earlier this month that fines law enforcement agencies that are found to be enforcing federal gun laws.

As The Associated Press reports, the lawsuit was filed in Cole County Circuit Court and seeks to halt enforcement of the law and have it overturned, arguing that it violates the Constitution's Supremacy Clause, which says that federal law overrules state laws.

Democratic St. Louis Mayor Tishaura Jones argues that the law is unconstitutional and dangerous, noting that last year was Missouri's deadliest yet in terms of gun violence.

"#HB85 makes it more difficult for law enforcement to do their job: stopping violent crime. #moleg is once again throwing up barriers that make communities less safe," Jones tweeted on Monday.

1. Thank Goodness BUT

Thank Goodness BUT we will have idiots test this with actual live arms. This will put administrators and/or authorities into position of enforcing the law of no gun ban. This is not a pleasant situation to be in due the times we are in.

2. Just pass a city law that SL does not have to enforce state laws.
