scalia moves between legitimate STATE POLICE POWERS to illegitimate dishonest FEDERAL Intrusions based on the bogus commerce clause expansion because he knows that federal regulation is improper.Right here:Why not? I think you're entitled to the same weapons as the average foot soldier.
Really? You think soldiers are exempt from background checks when they obtain the eligibility to those military weapons?
WTF does that have to do with anything SFB?
Because these nuts are fighting to preserve background check loopholes, and some of them even believe that background checks themselves are unconstitutional.
They are unconstitutional. Where does the Constitution state the government can impose requirements to buy a gun? The 2nd amendment states quite clearly that it can't impose requirements.
“Like most rights, the Second Amendment right is not unlimited. It is not a right to keep and carry any weapon whatsoever in any manner whatsoever and for whatever purpose: For example, concealed weapons prohibitions have been upheld under the Amendment or state analogues. The Court’s opinion should not be taken to cast doubt on longstanding prohibitions on the possession of firearms by felons and the mentally ill, or laws forbidding the carrying of firearms in sensitive places such as schools and government buildings, or laws imposing conditions and qualifications on the commercial sale of arms.”
DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA v. HELLER
The Constitution authorizes government to enact restrictions, requirements, and impositions to purchasing a firearm.
NOTE none of his DICTA supports
1) magazine limits
2) machine gun bans
3) "assault weapon bans"
