Ready my lips: There is no constitutional authority for the federal government to regulate private sales of firearms, or of anything else. Its authority extends only to commerce. Private sales are not commerce, and there is no other provision empowering the federal government to regulate them.
The Dayton mayor would be better advised to rub elbows with the state legislators. There is nothing in the U.S. Constitution that impinges on the state's powers in that regard. If the state constitution will allow it, then they can do it - IF they have the votes.
It ain't rocket science. |

TO REMEMBER |
| [The American Colonies were] all democratic governments, where the power is in the hands of the people and where there is not the least difficulty or jealousy about putting arms into the hands of every man in the country. [European countries should not] be ignorant of the strength and the force of such a form of government and how strenuously and almost wonderfully people living under one have sometimes exerted themselves in defence of their rights and liberties and how fatally it has ended with many a man and many a state who have entered into quarrels, wars and contests with them. — George Mason, "Remarks on Annual Elections for the Fairfax Independent Company" in The Papers of George Mason, 1725-1792, ed Robert A. Rutland (Chapel Hill, 1970). |
