And it is ONLY the USSC which can make that decision just as it did in this case. Marshall was the Chief Justice of the USSC not some clown wandering down the street.

Not true.
It is a ~principle~ that 'a law repugnant to the constitution is void; --- all courts are bound by that principle, thus they can't make a 'decision' to ignore or modify it.

They can only decide if it is violated.
The assault weapons ban unquestionably violates the 2nd.

Why do you support the man that supports the ban?
