" -- people want the US to uphold the fact that Californians can decide what laws are applicable to them."
You ~want~ the USSC to 'uphold' the CA assault weapons prohibition?
No... I want the people of California to decide that. I don't understand why the Supreme Court gets involved.
The 'people' of CA decided. They want gun prohibitions. --- The USSC must now strike down this infringement on our RKBA's. That is their job, to defend my right to own an 'assault weapon'. They dare not fail. [CJ bait]
If it is wrong for the USSC to say that Texas cannot have a ban on sodomy? Yes.
No. Same principle applies. The 'people' of Texas cannot infringe upon the privacy of their neighbors bedroom, -- or his gunroom.
There should be no restriction on gun ownership... the USSC should have no difficulty overturning this, because of the US Constitution. But, the people of California have to do something to change. Because this will be just the first law that the USSC will have to overturn. The people of California must see to it that another isn't passed. The people cannot let legislation pass, and then hope that the USSC will overturn it as being unconstitutional. It is similar to Campaign Finance Reform. Bush shouldn't have signed it, because now we wait for the Court to overturn it. They may not. It is a gamble.
Exactly. Bush should have stood on principle. His political fate now rests in the courts hands.
LOL!
