The Second Amendment is under attack and has been for some time. It will continue being under assault for some time to come. One way local governments are fighting back is by becoming a sanctuary county. By doing so, they basically say county resources won’t be used to enforce unconstitutional gun control laws.
Recently, two Iowa counties joined the growing ranks of sanctuary counties around the nation.
Soon, three counties in Iowa could be what’s called “second amendment sanctuaries.”
That means county governments will not enforce federal laws they deem as a counter to their right to bear arms.
These Iowa counties voted to become Second Amendment sanctuaries Here s what that means

The Second Amendment Sanctuary movement is still chugging along, and not just in state legislatures, which have approved 2A Sanctuary legislation in places like Oklahoma, Texas, Missouri, and Tennessee this year. The 2A Sanctuary movement, after all, began at the county level, and it seems like every day there are more counties signing on. In fact, I generally don’t write about counties declaring themselves to be Second Amendment safe havens any more, because I’d be writing multiple stories each day.
I’m making an exception here, because Jasper and Hardin counties have become the first Iowa political subdivisions to adopt Second Amendment Sanctuary language, and it’s always worth pointing out when the movement reaches the borders of yet another state.
