发帖数: 29846 | 1 Missouri House Bill Makes Proposing Gun Control Illegal
by Jammie
A Missouri lawmaker is proposing to send colleagues to prison for
introducing gun control legislation — a plan that even its sponsor
acknowledges has no chance of passage but nonetheless highlights the
increasingly strident tone of gun measures in Missouri’s generally pro-gun
Legislature.
Rep. Mike Leara said Tuesday that he considers his bill a statement of
principle. It would make lawmakers guilty of a felony punishable by up to
four years in prison if they introduce legislation restricting gun rights.
“I have no illusions about the bill making it through the legislative
process, but I want it to be clear that the Missouri House will stand in
defense of the people’s constitutional right to keep and bear arms,” Leara
, a Republican from suburban St. Louis, said in a written statement. He
declined further comment. |
