DUNCAN Okla. (TNN) - A local sheriff is among gun rights activists who are proud that Governor Kevin Stitt signed a bill making Oklahoma a Second Amendment Sanctuary State.
Stephens County Sheriff Wayne McKinney was the second sheriff in the state to make his county a Second Amendment Sanctuary County last year.
“We will protect and defend the Constitution of the United States,” McKinney said.
In early April, President Biden announced half a dozen executive orders after several mass shootings in the U.S.
In response, State Senator Warren Hamilton filed Senate Bill 631.
Hamilton called Sheriff McKinney, asking if he’d support the bill and there was no doubt he would.
The Problem With The Oklahoma 2A Sanctuary State Bill
If you ve been paying attention to our local and state elected officials in their out of the gate efforts to get reelected again in the next election cycle, the Second Amendment Sanctuary State Act is a real piece of work. Not only does it speak to the importance of fighting the infringement of a constitutionally protected right, it upholds previous infringements on said rights. First, a little backstory.
Oklahoma State Senator Warren Hamilton represents District 7 in this state, way down in Sasquatch territory. The Southeastern corner of this state where the landscape is beyond beautiful and the meth is Breaking Bad legendary. He s filed several bills over the last week or so, making headlines all across the state, but I d like to pick apart his little gun bill.
