The resolution reads: Whereas, The Second Amendment to the Constitution states "a well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.", And Whereas, The United States Supreme Court has affirmed and individual's right to possess firearms, unconnected with service in a militia, for traditionally lawful purposes, such as self-defense within the home, and Whereas, The United States Supreme Court has affirmed that the right of an individual to "keep and bear arms," as protected under the Second Amendment, is incorporated by the Due Process clause of the 14th Amendment against the states, and Whereas, The United States Supreme Court In United States v. Miller (1939) stated that fire arms that are part of ordinary military equipment with use that could contribute to the common defense are protected by the Second Amendment, and Whereas, The Adair County Fiscal Court is concerned about the passage of any bill containing language which could be interpreted as infringing on the rights of the citizens of Adair County to keep and bear arms, and Whereas, The Adair County Fiscal Court wishes to express its deep commitment to the rights of all citizens of Adair County to keep and bear arms, and Whereas, The Adair County Fiscal Court wishes to express opposition to any law that would unconstitutionally restrict the rights of the citizens of Adair County to keep and bear arms, and Whereas, The Adair County Fiscal Court wishes to express its intent to stand as a Sanctuary County for Second Amendment rights and to oppose, within the limits of the Constitution of the United States and the Commonwealth of Kentucky, any efforts to unconstitutionally restrict such rights. Therefore, Be It Resolved, the People of Adair County, through their duly elected Fiscal Court hereby designate Adair County a Second Amendment Sanctuary in order to preserve for the People of, on, and in Adair County, their rights guaranteed by the Constitution of the United States of America, furthermore That the Adair County Fiscal Court hereby expresses its intent to uphold the Second Amendment rights of the citizens of Adair County, Kentucky, and, furthermore That the Adair County Fiscal Court hereby declared its intent to oppose any infringement on the right of law-abiding citizens to keep and bear arms.
