So Gov. Whitmer said she will “protect people’s fundamental rights.”
A few of the bills she says she supports and is urging the legislature to pass that are teed up for the new legislature:
“Assault weapon” ban with definitions so vague that it bans semi automatic firearms that could never be considered “assault weapons“.
A red flag law that doesn’t protect the fundamental Constitutional right to due process.
A mandatory safe storage law that has already been declared unConstitutional under the SCOTUS decision, Heller vs DC: “[…] the trigger-lock requirement (as applied to self-defense) violate the Second Amendment… the requirement that any lawful firearm in the home be disassembled or bound by a trigger lock makes it impossible for citizens to use arms for the core lawful purpose of self-defense and is hence unconstitutional.“
The Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms is fundamental, as it is explicitly enumerated in the Bill of Rights, and is the ONLY AMENDMENT that states it “shall not be infringed”. The Supreme Court determined under McDonald vs City of Chicago, “The right to keep and bear arms for self defense in one's home is protected under the Second Amendment, and is incorporated against the states through the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.”
No, she isn’t working to “protect people’s fundamental rights.
