Congress does not have the power, under the Commerce Clause, to regulate commerce unless it's "among the several states".

Can you give me a specific example of something that isn't "among the several states"? There seems to be some discrepancy between Congress regulating something as "commerce among the several states", and it actually being bought or sold across state lines.

A farmer selling fruit from a fruitstand to passing motorists.

Why do you ask? You can't think of any? Do this have anything to do with handguns in DC?

Are you playing your gotcha games instead of debating the subject? Would you like me to start hitting the abuse key and reference your previous attempts at trolling, or will you settle down and make your point?
