Can the government constitutionally outlaw the types of rifles used by the El Paso and Dayton killers? In a word: No. [More]It says "shall not be infringed" for a reason.
And ditto for "Red Herring Laws."
It would be a criminal act to enforce them and it's past time to remind those who would of legal precedents.

There is already 20K plus unconstitutional gun laws in place. And the system enforces them. What is or is not unconstitutional is totally irrelevant to the left and to 99% of politicians. Any laws arising from the current kerfuffle WILL be upheld by the kangaroo court and WILL be used to turn honest citizens into felons. That is the ENTIRE purpose behind "gun laws". Any Rand had it right.
