Modifies provisions relating to the right to bear arms

Summary

The amendment would replace the current gun‑rights provision with language that makes the right to keep and bear arms unalienable and subject to strict scrutiny. It also authorizes counties, St. Louis City, and Kansas City to adopt ordinances governing firearm permits, background checks, fees, and penalties up to $1,000 or one year in jail, exempting active‑duty or retired law‑enforcement officers, full‑time judges, and employees required to be armed.
