There's nothing wrong with the Commerce Clause -- it's working exactly how it was intended.
Fortunately, we the people have control over that -- every two years we elect the people who write these laws. We can simply elect those who will write the laws the way we want them. (By "we" I mean "we the majority", whoever that is. It may not be "us" if you get my drift).

Ready for the big one? California can ban all guns if they so chose. There's nothing in the state constitution (one of six states, I believe) about the right to keep and bear arms.

Majority Rule == Mob rule. If majority rule were "the law," then the US would still be a British colony, slavery wouldn't have been abolished, and the list goes on and on.

Majority Rule: Where two wolves and a sheep vote on "what's for dinner."
