In a blatant attempt to violate preemption, the Indianapolis City Council has advanced an “unenforceable” gun control package. The ordinance raises the age to buy a firearm from 18 to 21, ends constitutional carry, and bans many common semi-automatic firearms. In 2011, NRA worked with the General Assembly to pass a preemption law preventing localities from passing and enforcing gun control. The council has admitted that this proposal cannot take effect as long as preemption is still the law in Indiana.
The legislation is set to receive a vote by the City-County Council on July 10th. NRA will keep you informed about any continued efforts to restrict Second Amendment rights.

Indianapolis has a SUBSTANTIAL gang and drug problem that the Mayor, local officials and media will not acknowledge. They tell us the problem is guns, guns and more guns while refusing to address the real issue.

Put the same effort into arresting those people who commit crimes and put them in prison. There a segment of your city’s population who commit more than half of all crimes and you know who they are. Big cities like Chicago, Philadelphia, NYC, LA and others have the most restrictive gun laws and the most criminal gun crime. You must think the… Read more »
Stupid is as stupid does!
Virtue signaling jerks.
Ironic how a city government will craft a law we don’t agree with and expect us to obey it while they defy a state law they don’t agree with.
Indianapolis pushing silly, unenforceable gun control? Makes sense. After all, our Transportation Tsar Bootyplug was it’s mayor.
2 “teens” (read as 18-19 yr old adults) were caught trying to conceal loaded AR15 pistols, along with 2 additional loaded magazines, at a Louisville KY skate park over the weekend. They should be charged as adults, for being unlawfully in possession of handguns. The article that I read didn’t say where the guns came from. If someone supplied them, they should be charged as well. If the guns were stolen, then the “teens” should have an additional charge. The prosecutors in these big cities are going to have to start getting back to charging these thugs and getting convictions,… Read more »
Even my home state has its bastion of disgusting commies
You deserve the Tyranny…You Allow.
Trump followers love the LIV golfers that defected but hate Colin Kaepernick is laughable and sad at best. Smh. The Right really don’t have real leadership. Seems like little kids that are mad because someone took their ball.
