What part of that can't you understand? Several states have made some rules of guns illegal and the SCOTUS has not overturned those laws.

We had a national ban on "assault rifles". We have a host of state bans and on "assualt rifles". SCOTUS had either upheld them or refused to hear challenges.

Heller says there is no right to keep and bear any kind of gun for any reason anywhere.

Been down this gun falateing road too many time in the last 50 years to think a rational conversation will proceed.

Bye now

You sure you want law enforcement to have that kind of power. Who do you really think will suffer the consequences most? Just look at drug crime statistics for the answer.

Drug crimes and gun crimes have a lot in common with tabbacco deaths. All three are represented by industries with well funded lobbyists, have no moral or ethical compunctions and take advantage of a willingly complicent and vocal minority. What the USSR called useful idiots.
