Thats some interesting insight PatientMan.

You know,I agree that different states have the lawful sovereignty to have different laws.

But not if those laws violate the parts of the Constitution that dont specifically relate to the Federal Government-the Supremacy Clause,often cited these days as a catch-all for the federal government to enforce any law it makes by warping other parts of the Constitution so they can make illegitimate 'laws', actually places the Constitution as the highest law of the land,and as well as stating clearly that laws must be made PURSUANT to the Constitution if they are to be legitimate,it even provides clear and decisive instruction that states may not violate it.

Thus,the Second Amendment applies to ALL government.

Local,state,and federal.

Therefor,the inalienable,individual right to keep and bear arms is the highest law of the land.

All that crazy police investigation of someone using a rifle in a manner that isnt violative of the rights of others is a symptom of 'gun control'-which is Constitutionally illegal and morally repugnant.

I dont think I would have been as friendly to that cop.
