A few years ago AZ Attorney-General Bob Corbin found a suitable victim of government lawlessness in the area of the right to keep and bear arms, and backed him in court all the way to the Arizona Supreme Court, proving along the way that Arizona has absolutely no authority of any kind over the private right to keep and bear arms -- that the issue came up in the constitutional delgation meetings five separate times, and was voted down every single time. The Arizona Supreme Court, figuratively speaking, waved its hand airily and said "Of course Arizona has the right to control and regulate the exercise of the right to keep and bear arms, to the point of extinguishing it if it chooses to do so."
Like I said: "Government by the Divine Right of Kings to Govern." Feudal government. They don't have the authority, but they do it anyway. And we sit around trying to figure out how we can get cities to install gun lockers to facilitate their destruction of our right to keep and bear arms.
