An Indianapolis ordinance attempting to raise the firearm purchase age to 21, ban 'assault weapons,' and restrict concealed carry was ruled unconstitutional by Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita. The ruling cited violations of state preemption laws, which prevent local governments from enacting firearm regulations that conflict with state law. This decision upholds existing Second Amendment rights within the state.
