what power does the SCOTUS have. can they have those who defy them fined, arrested etc???

Can they use the DOJ to act on their behalf?

How Dhimmicrats handle SCOTUS decisions they don't like:

... Indian Removal Act to be the humanitarian act Jackson claimed it to be. They fought the law by challenging it in the Supreme Court. In Cherokee Nation vs. Georgia (1831), the Supreme Court refused to hear the case on the basis that the Cherokee Nation did not represent a sovereign nation. However, in the case of Worcester vs. Georgia (1832) the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of the Cherokee. The Supreme Court this time ruled that the Cherokee Nation was sovereign thus making the removal laws invalid. The decision, rendered by Justice John Marshall, declared the forced removal of the Cherokee Nation to be illegal, unconstitutional and against treaties made. President Andrew Jackson, who had the executive responsibility of enforcement of the laws, stated, “John Marshall has made his decision; let him enforce it now if he can.”

The writer is spot on on when it come to the whining but machine guns are NOT illegal under Federal law - just expensive!

I am still waiting for the affected group/individual that will file an effective injunction against DC stopping these restrictions from going into effect until ruled upon by the DC circuit that originally ruled in Heller's favor.

Abortionists can get a ruling to stop any action they deem "restrictions" on abortion in 24 hours and stop such action from taking effect for years while being tried in the courts.

Why can't Heller (or his appointed surrogate) do the same here?

The attitude of the DC govt. is precisely why the founding fathers chose to acknowledge the right to keep and bear arms as immediately supporting the right to freedom of speech. A bill of rights without teeth is an unseemly waste of ink and parchment. Today it's arms. Tomorrow it will be the internal temperature of your home, or the clothes you wear, or the things you think and say. Delicious irony, I'd say for a “liberal” bastion like DC to suddenly find itself at odds with the will of the people, and the living embodiment of tyranny.

Since DC is overwhelminlgly black/afro American/whatever they go by these days, I'd say they are being disenfranchised by not being able to have guns.

But I guess they don't learn from history.
