I'm unclear on what law COngress could pass that would do anything in light of this ruling. What kind of "correction" would they pass? -- Congress passed the Gun Free School Zones Act of 1990.
-- Gun Free School Zones Act of 1990 deemed unconstitutional under the commerce clause in 1993 by the 5th Circuit Court.
-- Congress passed the Gun Free School Act of 1994 (in 1994 of course) to skirt the commerce clause ruling by the 5th Circuit Court.
-- U.S. Supreme Court granted certiorari in 1994.
-- USSC affirmed the 5th Circuit ruling in 1995.
-- Gun Free School Act of 1994 still stands as 20 U.S.C. Chapter 70, Sec. 8921.

I still don't see what actual legislation they might pass on machine guns. WHat would the legislation say or do?
