Gun Sanctuaries - How would they go over?

Any chance this could happen?

Well since the Gun Ban can't happen, the sanctuary gun city part is a moot point.

A SCOTUS case would get them overturned. 2nd Amendment cannot be infringed

Lol. Sure thing, bud.

Your stupidity is boundless.

About as well as Chicago.

It could happen with widespread momentum.

It's known as soft secession by another name. This is not a shooting war mind you, but a gradual process of large masses of people ignoring the federal government.

You see the beginnings of it with sanctuary cities, sanctuary states and states ignoring drug laws.

Fred Reed just wrote about it HERE.

quote:

There is no prospect of escape by armed rebellion. The federals control the army, and history has shown that soldiers will as soon kill their fellow citizens as any other.

A more fruitful, if gradual, path to freedom is to ignore the strictures of intrusive federals, to engage in passive resistance. Washington does not have the manpower to enforce alien laws upon the entire nation. We see the beginnings of this laudable disentanglement in the seven states that have made legal the use of marijuana. Should these states remain resolute, and refuse to allow their police to be used as Quisling Pinkertons against their citizenry, they may well prevail. The avowed resistance of the government of California to the imposition of laws alien to it is perhaps as important as the battle of Yorktown. As goes California, so goes the nation.

In a country deeply at odds with itself the best course may be separation, first of laws, then of administration, and finally of sovereignty. It need not be an uneven fight. As Washington can withhold federal funds from the states, so can the states withhold taxes from the federals, as California has threatened.

Lol

This is comparing apples to oranges.

Sanctuary cities protecting illegal immigrants are protecting people who are violating immigration law passed by the Congress of the United States within the boundaries established by the United States Constitution, and therefore are wrong.

Sanctuary cities for gun owners would not, and should not, be necessary as any law to confiscate guns passed by the Congress and signed into law by the President would be illegal, as it would violate the second amendment. If the Supreme Court upheld the illegal action, the people would fight it out and any sanctuary cities established for this purpose would be right.

Put or shut up. Get your gun ban you so desperately crave and we will see what comes next.

If at some point the federal government passes gun bans

Unconstitutional, but, in the alternative,

could states and cities declare themselves to be gun sanctuaries?

No

No


If gun bans occur, it will be at the local and state level. Those will be challenged all the way to SCOTUS, of course. But gun bans are absolutely not coming from Congress.
