Oregon judge rules against local Second Amendment sanctuary laws, calling sheriffs who allow them 'racist'
Fox News
The Oregon Court of Appeals ruled that local governments cannot set up Second Amendment sanctuaries and prohibit police from enforcing gun control measures.
Some of these ordinances are symbolic, but the court reviewed a measure enacted in Columbia County that would have imposed thousands of dollars in fines on officials who attempt to enforce federal and state gun laws. It said the ordinance would "create a ‘patchwork quilt’ of firearms laws in Oregon, where firearms regulations that applied in some counties would not apply in Columbia County," which the court found would violate state law.

The county ordinance was backed by gun rights groups, including the Oregon Firearms Federation and Gun Owners of America (GOA).
