Raich is an abomination to the Constitution. The court had a much better opinon in US v Lopez, where it struck down the gun free school zone law.

I was asking about this case on FR just a couple of weeks ago.
Thanks for posting.

Interesting. Wasn’t Tennessee going the same route? I thought I read where Tennessee law went into effect & they received a letter from BATF saying to the effect that they WERE STILL under “Fed Control” & gun sellers were warned NOT to get swayed by the new law & fall into an illegal situation. I wonder in Montana will be the next to receive such a letter. Maybe it will be delivered by an APF officer homebased in Hardin. I know Montana is one of the most heavily armed states in our nation. This is a story well worth keeping track of, thanks for posting.

Thanks EdReform! Just took a quick scan of the article and I didn't see what the rationale was for Montana pressing the issue at this point. JMHO, but I think Montana might have a stronger case if they waited for their statute to be challenged by the federales. But whadda I know...
Montana taking it to the federales!

Federal courts have an inherent conflict of interest in hearing this case anyway. If they find for the states, then well and good, but if they find for the feds, they’re finding for their paymaster, so their ruling would be somewhere between suspect and moot.
