The Brady campaign concludes that resolutions declaring “Second Amendment Sanctuaries” within counties and cities are “purely symbolic and have no legal weight.” And in Texas, the author of House Bill 2622, which “may be cited as the Second Amendment Sanctuary State Act,” told the El Paso Times in April that his Bill would not prevent federal agents coming into Texas to enforce new gun laws—but that they would get no help from the local authorities. The Bill was sent to Governor Abbott’s desk before the Memorial Day weekend. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
