LOL - another person who chooses to ignore reality. Break a NYC or Chicago gun law and then write us from your real jail and tell us if the 2nd amendment applies to the states. You can ignore that all you want but that is legal reality. Local officials, as you guys have repeatedly pointed out, have a sworn oath to uphold the constitution.
Yep, and as Marshall pointed out in 1803, laws that contravene the Constitution are null & void, and ~all~ officials are duty bound by oath to ignore such infringements.
-- You are ignoring ~that~ reality.
Through the process of judicial review, the SCOTUS has ruled that the 2nd amendment does not apply to the states.
Prove it. You simply made that one up.
Do you think that Gore should have just ignored the Bush v Gore decision and refused to give up the whitehouse?
He never ~had~ the whitehouse. -- Are you getting desperate? You're taking weird positions in those last couple lines.
We have SCOTUS judicial review (it existed long before Marbury v Madison) for situations where there is a constitutional question and if we don't like the results then we pass and amendment or try to get it overruled by a more reasonable court. Somehow the courts have had no problem overturning rulings such as Plessy v. Ferguson but have refused to overturn Barron v Baltimore, even though it was made by a "senile old man trying to save the union". Why would liberal courts such as the Warren court not just overturn Barron rather than apply everything piecemeal?
Barron was overturned by the 14th, just as I addressed in my last post, which you cannot refute.
By your logic, every SCOTUS, congress and executive in the last 175 years has been corrupt.
No, that's your desperate interpretation of my logic. - Logic you can't refute. Try to counter the facts in my last post, -- or give it up.
Barron v Baltimore 1833. How could you have missed this?
After the passage of the 14th amendment, the 2nd has not been incorporated (yet).
Like it or not, Barron v Baltimore is still in play when it comes to the 2nd. You can ignore it all you want, but our system of government says it is.
