On Wednesday, the United States Department of Justice said Missouri's House Bill 85, or the Second Amendment Preservation Act, is unconstitutional.
This spring, the Missouri Senate passed the bill, which says the federal government should not interfere in state gun laws.
This includes tracking laws, certain prohibitions on the possession, ownership, use, or transfer of a specific type of firearm, and confiscation orders as provided in the act.
The DOJ says the bill endangers public safety.
The Associated Press reported Wednesday that 12 of 53 federally deputized officers in Missouri have pulled out of joint task forces because of the law. |

So, basically the DoJ is saying "If we violate the Constitution to advance public safety, there's nothing you can do about it."
Au contraire, vous mountebanks.
Hey, yo. 'Checked your job description lately? |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
