Iām proud to announce that the Missouri Firearms Coalitionās legislation to enhance Stand-Your-Ground law has been introduced in the House and Senate!
Once passed, this legislation will provide critical protections that gun owners desperately need here in Missouri.
First,Ā the bill gives us the presumption of immunity in the wake of an actual or threatened use of force. The impact of this is massive.
Second,Ā the bill creates the ability for us to assert our immunity in a pre-trial hearing instead of after weāre convicted in a sham trial.
Third,Ā the bill states that a gun owner canāt be arrested following a shooting unless there is probable cause we committed an actual crime.
Dozens of states have already put these protections in place to protect gun owners from liberal prosecutors like…but Missouri has not. This means weāre all vulnerable if we must defend ourselves.
Now we need to build co-sponsors, and fast! Hit the link below!
(Senator Ben Brown (left) and Rep. Justin Sparks (right) are our lead bill sponsors on Enhanced Stand-Your-Ground law (H.B. 363/S.B. 363.))
To thank Senator Brown for sponsoring S.B. 363, call his office at 573-751-3678.
To thank Representative Sparks for sponsoring H.B. 363, call his office at 573-751-0562.
Donāt forget, our āpro-gun legislatureā has not passed a single gun bill since the 2021 session, almost four years ago. This is completely unacceptable. We need to hammer on Jeff City NOW!
Make sure you sign your petition demanding action on these bills. And after you do, please donate so we can spread the word!
Thank you for standing with us and the Second Amendment!
Weāll have updates on this (and other bills) soon.
For Missouri,
Aaron Dorr

P.S. For over a decade, weāve used Facebook to educate and mobilize gun owners. Weāll continue to do that, but most political free speech has moved to X (aka Twitter.) So have we.
