Only a concerted effort by those who value their firearms freedoms, all across the state, will bring victory . SB 1268, when passed, will halt the constant march of local gun control across the state. City bureaucrats, and their accomplices in various anti-gun groups, aren't about to give up their agenda of disarming gun owners without a struggle. In fact, they will win unless you act to defeat them. Please let me explain the situation.
Preemption is the wise policy of insisting that gun laws be uniform across the state.
For some time, Arizona's preemption law was very weak. That led to local laws banning guns in such public areas as parks. Legislators attempted to placate both sides, giving up more of your rights in the hopes that everyone would just go away . Gun Owners of America warned then that the new law was ripe for abuse. Recently, they voted to outlaw private sales at gun shows by forcing background registration checks.
