Correct. She sided with the gunshows because the cities overstepped their bounds and she sided with the assault weapons ban because California doesn't have a Second Amendment in their constitution.

She sounds like a strict interpreter of the law.

If she was from a state that has a RKBA amendment in their constitution, she might have upheld it. Since she's from California, we don't know and that's why we're still debating.

Not so clear to me. It comes down to whether or not the federal constitution is supreme over the states (within its written limits).
