Washington Gun Law President, William Kirk, William Kirk discusses a more prevalent political trend which is State legislatures that knowingly pass laws that are either contrary to the US Constitution or well-established Supreme Court Precedent. Today we examine this travesty in the Second Amendment community by referencing a law review article, written just a few years ago, when many more conservative states were passing abortion laws which were in direct conflict with the holdings of Roe v. Wade. But that case has now been overturned. What about states that are knowingly passing laws in violation of the clear holdings in New York Pistol & Rifle Association v. Bruen? (A case just announced by the Court). Can state legislators actually do this? Do we have any recourse? Learn all of this and more and arm yourself with education today.
