2nd Ammendment Rights: Should Guns Be Banned?

[Johca_Gaorl]

Ahh yes but it can relegate the power if it wants to. There are plenty of powers that are constantly used every day in the United States that aren't in the constitution. According to your arguement judicial review wouldn't even exisist.

um it's also sort of my point that the Constitution has been badly abused, or did you miss that?

Thats just it the elastic clause does this. It allows congress to give itself all the powers that are constitutionally sound.

and you think the Consitution gives the gov't the right to regulate guns?

I'm guessing you mean the national government but the powers about guns aren't in the constitution. If congress deams it neccessary it could give the national government power over gun contol.

Actually that's not my writing it's called the 10th amendment.
