Agreed. They certainly have no limitations in weilding the "supremacy clause" when they want to. This incorporation crap is nothing but a rubric to enforce a "glass is half empty" interpretation.
Exactly. This is the same mechanism they are using to expand the so-called "commerce clause" to mena anything that happens anywhere. Even if it is only inside ONE State, or even over seas.
All I ask for is a strict scrutiny test with respect to the 2nd Amendment. The governmental purpose, objective, or interest must be "compelling." The means to achieve the purpose, objective, or interest must be "narrowly tailored" to the accomplishment of the governmental purpose, objective, or interest. Under this standard, almost no federal or state gun laws measure up. You could lose your rights only as a result of due process (e.g. conviction for a violent felony).
