Is it standard practice to introduce several bills that are basically duplicates? Is that seen as a way to "stack the deck?"

It can be but more often it's because none of these idiot legislators talk to each other.

Now in some states there has to be a duplicate bill introduced in each chamber by law

Wow, so even the Ruger 10/22 eh? Geez. That bill sounds like a call-to-action money maker right there.

Those legislators in Hawaii need to take a Civics class. Congress doesn't clarify or repeal Amendments to the Constitution. The Supreme Court clarifies issues, and has done the basic ground work already. It takes another Constitutional Amendment to repeal one. The chances right now of getting 35 states to repeal the Second Amendment is approaching absolute zero.

You know as well as I do that the 2nd Amendment can be made moot by restrictions such as those being passed in some of the states (and which are not being struck down by the courts). Why should the antis bother to formally repeal it?

Just goes to show that the people responsible for making the rules, don't care at all about the process of their own positions; they only care about appealing to a majority in order to get reelected.
