[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 2021018, member: 3099"] And therein lies the whole dang problem. For far too long Congress and Administrations just pass stuff with not a care if it will pass constitutional muster. Hell, I even think that it may be their position that that's what the purpose of the Judicial branch is for! For the purpose of discussion lets just say that Obama issues an EO banning the manufacture and sale of collapsible stocks and high cap mags. ATF then drafts regulations to carry it out. Then they go to Magpul and let them know that they are no longer to make or sell said items and that existing inventory and work in process is to be destroyed or surrendered. Of course Magpul could beat it in court in all likelihood. But how do they survive for the 1 to 3 years it will take to get it into a District Court for an actual trial? Answer: They wouldn't. They don't have the financial resources to wither this storm if they have 98% of their revenue yanked. So while the letter of the law might get established correctly, the government still wins by bankrupting the manufacturers. This is the exact reason I think out government is broken beyond repair. Congress and Presidents legislate and regulate knowingly unconstitutional BS and if the "subjects" don't like it, well tough, just let them sort it out in the courts if they wish. [/QUOTE]
