U.S. judge rules Missouri state gun law is unconstitutional
Quick Glance: Judge rules in the United States Missouri's gun laws are unconstitutional.
  • U.S. District Judge Brian Wimes in Jefferson City, Missouri, ruled that the state's Second Amendment Preservation Act (SAPA) violates the Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution, which states that federal laws take precedence over conflicting state laws.

  • "If the state legislature wants to expand upon the foundational rights codified in the Second Amendment, they have the authority to do that," he said.

  • State or local law enforcement agencies could face a $50,000 fine under the Missouri law, also known as H.B. 85, if they knowingly enforced federal laws that the state measure purportedly nullified.
