Missouri law professor files suit against campus gun ban
« on: September 22, 2015, 09:30:51 AM »
It's a Missouri Constitution based suit, not a 2A suit, so even if he wins it probably won't apply outside of MO.
He's testing his state's new RKBA amendment.

In the suit, Bukowsky and Barondes invoke Amendment 5, a measure that Missouri voters passed in August 2014 stating that any gun regulations be subject to "strict scrutiny" and that Missouri residents' right bear arms is "unalienable." Sixty-one percent of voters in the August 2014 election approved the measure.

Barondes' petition says MU is failing to follow the law.

"The Defendants maintain a gun ban using methods that make law-abiders more vulnerable to attack by law-breakers — a ban that unlawfully and unconstitutionally violates Plaintiff's individual rights to keep and carry a firearm for self-defense," the opening paragraph of the petition states.
"A well balanced breakfast being necessary to the start of a healthy day, the right of the people to keep and eat food shall not be infringed "  - Who has a right to keep and eat food, The People or A Well Balanced Breakfast?
