Federal carry law would be bad for gun rights and Constitution

Perhaps more fundamentally, such a law would be an utter surrender of the Constitutional high ground. Even without the Second Amendment (and how would one reconcile regulation of firearms carry with shall not be infringed?), what Constitutional authority would be cited as empowering Congress to impose such regulation? The interstate commerce clause (which is used and abused for just about every other usurpation Congress can't justify in any other way)?

Illinois residents are entirely justified in their resentment of (mostly Chicago-area) politicians who hold hostage their Consitutionally guaranteed, fundamental human right of the individual to keep and bear arms, but not justified in trying to dilute their oppression, by distributing it across the entire country.

That's today's St. Louis Gun Rights Examiner. Please give it a look, and tell a friend.

Oh, and if you could spare a digg?
