This isn't about assault weapons, gunshows or Saturday night Specials. This is about trying to find out whether a future Supreme Court Justice can support the Bill of Rights.
If she can't do that, she should be inelegible.
The Second Amendment serves as that limus test.

From what I have found in the above post, in 5 minutes, clearly shows that the California Constitution recognizes that the US Constitution Bill of Rights enumerates other rights of the people.

I was getting more and more excited reading her positions until I got to this one.
In her opinion for the court majority, Brown strongly rejected any suggestion that the state Constitution protects the rights of Californians to own weapons.
"No mention is made [in the state Constitution] of a right to bear arms," Brown wrote.
State governments cannot violate God-given rights. State Legislatures do not trump the Bill of Rights.
That being said, I think you can stop worrying about her being a Souter since she is obviously even more States Rights than me!
