how many times does this need to be said. You don't have to be arrested to have standing to challenge the law.

You already think I'm an idiot(for being a Libertarian), so please indulge me. Everything I have read to this point declares contrary to your statement. Can you point me to a link? I really would like to know.

If you are talking about the "petitioning for redress of grievences", the last few times that has been tried have failed miserably. All the petitions sent to Congress on RKBA issues have been apparently ignored if the current state of the laws is any indicator. Congress can ignore us, however a Constitutional Challenge before the Supremes will not be.

You are indeed having a difficult time. This link should be (I hope) a simple enough definition of 'standing'.

STANDING - The legal right to initiate a lawsuit.
