Montana Governor signs bill to protect residents from Federal gun control laws

Everybody is expecting a huge push by Joe Biden and the Democrats on gun control, including measures to ban so-called “assault weapons” (or as the Democrats are trying to rebrand them, “military style” weapons), and “high capacity” magazines of more than 10 rounds.

In anticipation of this move Governor Gianforte of Montana has just signed legislation to protect his State’s residents from the expected gun control action. Here is more:

Gov. Greg Gianforte on Friday signed a bill that prohibits state and local law enforcement in Montana from enforcing federal bans on firearms, ammunition and magazines.

Supporters of the law have said it would protect the Second Amendment from stiffer gun control laws that could come from federal legislation or executive orders by President Joe Biden 

Montana law would prohibit law enforcement officials and other state employees from enforcing, implementing or spending state funds to uphold federal bans on particular kinds of firearms, ammunition and magazines.

There has long been a debate over State and Federal laws and which trumps which and for the most part the side a person is on depends upon whether or not they agree with the Federal law that is in debate at that time. Naturally gun control Marxists and the Democrats (but I repeat myself) will claim that States cannot nullify Federal laws but I would remind these people that they themselves set the precedent when States began passing laws to legalize marijuana and neutralize Federal immigration laws.

And some more good news is, according to the article lined to above there are at least 12 States looking at nullifying any new gun laws.
