Missouri’s new gun law allows citizens to sue local police for cooperating with feds.

The Fed govt has NO authority to restrict or take away guns from the people. So if the Fed makes a law claiming they do, that law is unconstitutional, and is null and void. And states and local areas can make laws saying otherwise, and the Fed must yield.

Exactly! Well said.


Plus, when would a state ever willingly decide to enforce a federal law, when they do not have to?

No idea what is your area but the sheriff doesn't sound too bright if he's willing to limit an investigation just because it's the gubermint.

"Gun crime" is increasing, as there is an assault on police forces by liberals and lack of enforcement for a variety of crimes.

The gun does not create crime (in contrast to what liberals think); it is simply an instrument used in the perpetration of the crime. It could be a knife, lead pipe, axe, ect.................................

Liberal policy is the cause of increased crime, not guns. If you don't like crime, don't vote for liberals anymore, who seem to welcome higher crime and support riots and destruction of private property.
