I’m not too worried what these liberal nut jobs are doing. The USSC will be ruling soon that “Congress or any State or Local Government” can restrict individuals from owning firearms.
The Constitution is the law of the land and any restricts placed on the citizens are illegal. The next fight will be the laws being removed from the books.

You have a lot more faith in the US Supreme Court than I do. I can see them upholding the 2nd Amendment right for individual ownership through a ruling in the DC case, but I worry about them being clear about imposed “safety” manufacturing requirements being used as a defacto prohibition.

Several states passed strong, individual RKBA constitutional amendments. Very few gun laws were overturned by state courts as a result. The Powers That Be, just don't like peons being armed, and they fight tooth and nail, Constitutions, and even laws passed by legislatures in some cases, be damned.
