Norton fails, but so does Rand on this issue.
It ain't just about the local gun laws in the District of Columbia, it's about all of 'em.
The US Constitution says that Congress shall "...exercise exclusive Legislation in all Cases whatsoever, over such District (not exceeding ten Miles square) as may, by Cession of particular States, and the Acceptance of Congress, become the Seat of the Government of the United States..."
It may not be clear to Norton, but those words, if they really mean anything, mean that "local" DC laws are all, each and every one, unconstitutional ab initio, and any competent court should so rule.. |

| Stated like a true liberal, it is clear she has NO understanding of the CONSTITUTION. Would she be so opposed to this if a Democrat had introduced this bill? Unlikely! Someone in Congress needs to stand up for the Constitution as many have forgotten their oath of office to uphold it! |

TO REMEMBER |
| A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise, and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be the constant companion of your walks. — Thomas Jefferson, Encyclopedia of T. Jefferson, 318, Foley, Ed., reissued 1967. |
