With the flurry of new firearms laws being passed across the country, I would like to take a moment to ask what the consequences are for the legislators and governors who create these bills and sign them into law if the laws are found to be unconstitutional?
Shouldn't they face some sort of penalty for advancing legislation which does not pass constitutional muster?
Since they are supposed to be the folks who should know what is constitutional or not when they create the laws, shouldn't they be held accountable with fines, immediate prohibition on holding public office, or some other form of rebuke or admonishment?
It just seems fair.
