Subdivisions of the state serve at the pleasure of the state, and the state retains all police powers per the 10th Amendment and delegates certain limited authority to its subdivisions.
The state has chosen to occupy the whole field of gun regulation. Without a provision in the state constitution providing home rule authority over gun regulation (there isn't one), the cities have no standing and the suit should be summarily dismissed. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
