It's about time somebody called the Feds on their abuse of the Commerce Clause and/or their abdication of the 2nd Amendment! All the better I suppose to kill two birds with one stone!

DING DING DING! We have a winner!

Too many people are forgetting that the commerce clause is superceded by the Bill of Rights.

The commerce clause is NOT blanket permission for the federal government to do whatever it damn well pleases, no matter how much some people would like it to be.

Government may do ONLY what is specifically granted to it. EVERYTHING else is reserved to the states and/or the people.
