Governor’s Address: Maine does not need New York-style gun control
The proposal for Universal Background Checks on the November ballot seems simple, but it’s not. First of all, according to Constitutions of the United States and Maine, it is likely unconstitutional.
Dear Maine Taxpayer,
Gun control is a very emotional issue, especially after unstable people use firearms to kill innocent Americans. The media and liberal politicians use these horrific tragedies to demand the government take firearms away from law-abiding citizens.
New York billionaire Michael Bloomberg is backing this anti-gun effort to require background checks on the private transfers or sale of all firearms.
Article I, Section 16 of the State of Maine Constitution clearly states: “Every citizen has a right to keep and bear arms and this right shall never be questioned.” The Second Amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees “the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed.”
Still, a liberal gun-grabber called Moms Demand Action is pushing for this law. But it’s really Bloomberg and other out-of-state liberals who are trying to buy this gun ban in Maine.
