Let me play devil’s advocate on that statement for a minute.

If we believe that the 10th Amendment leaves all extra-constituional matters to the States or the People, then don’t our elected representatives have the power to define terms that are not explicitly defined within the Constitution?

“the US Law “tail” cannot wag the constitutional Dog.”

“cannot”? It does. Again, let’s see you carry a gun in DC and claim the 2nd amendment prohibits infringing on that right.
