Wisconsin Senate Passes ‘Second Amendment Sanctuary’ Bill
24th June 2021
Wisconsin’s Senate this week passed a piece of legislation that supporters say would make the state a “Second Amendment sanctuary” and exempt the state from federal firearms laws, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
I doubt seriously whether this is anything more than virtue-signaling. That the Federal government has the right (it has always had the power) to stomp on any state law it cares to was settled in 1865. But, like a political lawn sign, it is evidence of popular sentiment … which is something, I guess.
