I'm not Andy, but I think it is absolutely clear that the Second Amendment does not apply to the states (at least until the 14th Amendment came along which has been interpreted to apply many of the rights in the bill of rights to the states --- though not the 2nd Amendment.) States, cities, towns can regulate guns however they want without running afoul of the 2nd Amendment.

Yeah I think really the 9th 10th amendment make it clear that it's a state issue, a state crime issue. The only real justification for federal crime laws are interstate commerce and that's really pretty dumb in most instances.

I think most rational people would agree that when it comes to guns the feds should have nothing to do with gun laws and that kind of thing and leave it to the states in almost all cases.

I mean randy weaver had his family killed by the feds because supposdedly he had a gun that was 1/4" too short? That's just ridiculous. It's like having the US army come and invade your house and stand you up and shoot you because you have an unpaid city parking ticket. It's just completely out of control.
