Good law is constitutional.
Bad law is unconstitutional.
While the Supreme Court left intact a good portion of the 
Brady Bill, they struck down the Fed's attempt to force
mandatory backround checks, which would be executed and 
paid for by the states. 

Show me the chapter you apparently
skipped over, and read to me where I fucked up.

Out of all the rulings last week that in one way or another 
gave more voice to the throats of the states, you're enthralled
with one redneck's crusade to avoid the service charges of checking
out John Q. Hayseed's rap-sheet, huh?

Yeah, and when you finally open yer eyes, look around,
and think "Tobacco Settlement" and realize you're
so far off-base, you're out of bounds...

Corporations run states. And the state runs you.
