Wrap: A Stoddard County judge has temporarily blocked license offices from sending information of gun owners to the federal government.
This all began when Republican Lt. Governor Peter Kinder alerted the public to this process.
The plaintiff's attorney in the Stoddard County lawsuit Russell Oliver says this practice violates state statute.

Description: "We are a state and a nation of laws. But we are also not going to collect and retain this personal and private information of our citizens. Those laws are supposed to mean something, and are supposed to be followed." |
But the judge in the case says he wants more information from both sides before a permanent decision is made.
