nullify the federal gun rights law. Which I think is going to get worse and worse as
time goes on if they keep trying to take our guns and rights away. We Americans
have to stop this some way somehow. States frustrated by federal overreach have
been taking action to nullify laws coming from Washington, D.C. but the efforts
may prove futile given long-standing court precedents dictating that states can't
overturn federal law. The federal actions under fire range from Obamacare and gun
control laws to a controversial detention measure contained in a defense
authorization bill. (News-max, 2014) The reason why I believe that this is the
most important bill in the amendments is because it is the most controversial bill
that is being limited so badly today that its not even funny on how the government
is trying to ban AR-15s and other semi auto weapons because they think they are
the ones causing the most deaths and shootings in the U.S today which they only
account for 15 percent of the shootings, Hand guns are the most widely used gun in
shootings. Also people think the AR in AR-15 means automatic rifle. It dont it
stands for the manufacture that designed the AR-15 which is Armalite corporation.
And the AR comes from the word Armalite. Not assault rifle or Automatic Rifle.
