SECOND AMENDMENT PRESERVATION ACT

SUMMARY

SAPA, passed by the legislature and signed into law in 2021, is founded on a constitutional principle that has been upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court multiple times, called anti-commandeering. It is the idea that the feds can’t commandeer the resources of our state in order to enforce federal law. SAPA was designed to protect law abiding Missourians from federal tyrants, by asserting the state’s right to simply not allow our cops to enforce federal gun laws. Not only is Missouri's SAPA law the strongest in the country, it also created a roadmap for how we can use anti-commandeering to push back on federal overreach in other areas.

SAPA TALKING POINTS

  • Based on the constitutional Anti-Commandeering Doctrine
  • Does not violate the Supremacy Clause, as it limits the state, not the feds
  • Protects law abiding Missourians – it does not apply to violent criminals
  • ...

SUMMARY

Missouri has had Stand-Your-Ground (SYG) law in place since 2016. Despite this, gun owners in Missouri are presumed guilty in any use of force situation. In almost 20 other states, gun owners are presumed innocent until the state proves their guilt in court. More, in these states, gun owners can’t be arrested without probable cause. And in many of them, gun owners can assert SYG in a pre-trial hearing. In Missouri, SYG protections don’t take effect until the appellate process.

SUMMARY

Gun Grabbers at all levels of government have been attempting to ban “Assault Weapons” and limit ammo capacity for decades. They have no definition of “Assault Weapon.” If it looks scary to them, they want to ban it. Banning “Assault Weapons” isn’t about reducing violent crime, it’s about controlling what weapons Missourians have access to: for self-defense, for hunting, for sport shooting, and most importantly for holding our own government accountable to “We the People.”

ASSAULT WEAPONS BAN/AMMO CAPACITY TALKING POINTS

  • The end goal of this legislation isn’t to reduce crime, it’s control over the people
  • Gun owners don’t need a reason to own these, it’s our right as a free people
  • Gun grabbers want to ban scary looking guns (ie. ALL semi-automatic weapons)
  • AR-15s are the most popular semi-automatic firearms in Missouri
  • Banning “Assault Weapons” will do nothing to stop violent criminals
