Between Two Rivers

Between the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers. Between the Iowa and Cedar. Between the Des Moines and Skunk. I've lived or worked by them all. (Except the Missouri - that one doesn't count.) And fought floods against two of them more than once.

Prohibition of [firearm] regulation by political subdivisions

The law: 724.28 Prohibition of regulation by political subdivisions.

An ordinance regulating firearms in violation of this section existing on or after April 5, 1990, is void.

Quotes

Anyone who can't be trusted with a gun can't be trusted without a custodian. - David Codrea

Gun rights are a reflection that the citizen is a responsible member of society, not a subject. Gun rights are a statement that we are responsible to take care of ourselves, and not wait for Nanny to save us or our children. - Mrs. Borepatch, via Borepatch

Don't start nothin', won't be nothin'. - Mike Vanderboegh

A system of licensing and registration is the perfect device to deny gun ownership to the bourgeoisie. -Vladimir Ilyich Lenin

Thou shalt never be a perpetrator. Thou shalt never be a victim. And thou shalt never, but never be a bystander
- Yehuda Bauer

Do you think the laws of God will be suspended in favor of America because you were born in it? - Mark Steyn

After America, there is no place to run. – Kitty Werthmann

It doesn’t matter how smart you are, unless you stop and think. - Thomas Sowell

One bleeding-heart type asked me in a recent interview if I did not agree that 'violence begets violence.' I told him that it is my earnest endeavor to see that it does. I would like very much to ensure--and in some cases I have--that any man who offers violence to his fellow citizen begets a whole lot more in return than he can enjoy. - Col. Jeff Cooper
