Ping in Roscoe and a couple of his cronies. According to these guys, it needs to be incorperated by the USSC before it applies to the States. States are well within their rights to completely ban firearms if they so choose ala Kalifornistan.

Gods save us from fools and lawyers. But why be redundant?

The posts that I have read only explain how the states enact gun control. I haven't read any posts that support that view from any Freeper.

"States are well within their rights to completely ban firearms if they so choose ala Kalifornistan."

Only if you believe that a state can pass laws that are repugnant, not in pursuance to, and superior to the supreme law of the land, the U.S. Consitution, which contains and especially references the Bill of Rights.

I believe that Article VI, para 2, shows that the Bill of Rights is unquestionably superior to the constitution of any state where a conflict exists or the states would not have ratified those amendments. I further believe that the Bill of Rights is evidence enough that the people retained the right to severely limit government's involvement in the personal lives of the people, in spite of the fact that the people later allowed itself to be mis-represented and un-represented in Congress with Amendment 17 (which precipitated the slow march into a democracy and the degradation of our Republic).

Nevertheless, I still live in a Republic, and will not allow fifty-one percent, or even 99.99 percent of of un-informed people to make decisions on my behalf which effect ANY of my unalienable rights -- both enumerated and non-enumerated.
