Actually, it’s hard to believe the Ninth wrote this.

Actually, it's not: it's the same court that ruled (in Stewart) that a felon had the right to build & keep his own machineguns (if that's not "shall not be infringed", I don't know what is). Unfortunately it was effectively overturned by the Supreme Court in the extremely bizzare Raich case (to wit: the "interstate commerce" clause applies when someone reduces demand in illegal commerce - yes, you read that right).

So, in anyones HO, how does this effect the CA Penal Coade until it gets to the SCOTUS??? I have a idea, but want to bounce it off a couple of other great minds.
