2A cases awaiting cert vote
I've filed amicus briefs in them for Firearms Policy Foundation et al.:
Folajtar v. Rosen. Issue: 2A as applied to a person convicted of a nonviolent felony.
Holloway v. Rosen. Issue: 2A as applied to a person convicted of a state misdemeanor (DUI with a prior), which GCA treats as a felony (a state-designated misdemeanor, but carrying more than two years' potential imprisonment). Interesting aspect: under state law, his driving privileges were revoked for 18 months and firearms rights not affected at all, but under federal law he loses his firearm rights forever, for an offense that had nothing to do with firearms or violence).

Exactly which grant of power to Congress allows them to enact laws restricting firearms ownership? From my decades of study over 100,000s of pages of the Framer's writings, and from discussions on the Bill of Rights, esp arguments against, one sees that Congress had no grants of power over Rights. It is only the ignorance of people today that takes us to the point where we have arrived.
Those who drew their line in the sand re federal gun control get what they deserve. No power to regulate any THING was ever granted. No power to deny God endowed Rights exists. Draw the line at GTH feds. If the Founding Fathers had drawn the lines where we allow, we would have returned to slavery 240 yrs ago.
