Do bad Second Amendment Preservation Acts make for bad laws?

Since this is case is going to be heard by SCOTUS this article could be useful for Legal. Had Missouri done a better job on the legislation there'd be less uncertainty, but now questions like nullification, SCOTUS's potential to rule against Missouri in whole or part, if in part does that alter the Missouri SAPA automatically (skeptical) or simply leave SAPA without a framework?

Missouri’s Second Amendment Preservation Act (SAPA) is one of the most incompetently drafted statutes to reach the Supreme Court in a long time. It is written as though the state legislature were trying to goad federal courts into striking it down — something such a court did, in fact, do last March.


And yet, if you stare at the law long enough, it is possible to find individual provisions that may actually be constitutional.

Most of the legislation we get at any level (Municipal/State/Federal) these days is of the "Somebody do something!" variety. Not a good way to govern.

No surprise here considering the hot mess the wording of the MO law was.

The Supreme Court on Friday refused a request by Missouri to reinstate a state law that bars police officers from enforcing federal restrictions on the sale and ownership of firearms that the state believes violate the Second Amendment. A federal judge ruled earlier this year that the state law is itself unconstitutional and blocked the state from enforcing the law. In an unsigned order on Friday, the justices left that decision in place while the state’s appeal continues in the lower courts.
