Gov. Doug Ducey has signed legislation allowing guns closer to schools and penalizing cities with gun laws stricter than the state's.
But he vetoed a bill that would have tied Arizona gun laws to those in other states.
The new laws go into effect Aug. 6.
Local laws
Ducey signed Senate Bill 1266, which declares invalid any local regulation that violates the state statute preventing cities and counties from regulating firearms and allows courts to fine cities or counties up to $50,000 for such violations. It allows any individual affected by the regulation to sue a city or county, and allows the court to award them up to $100,000 in damages.

It looks like the Second Amendment right to have guns triumphs over the rights of others to avoid being harmed by guns.
