Again I call bullshit. There’s no way in a million years these same clowns would apply the same logic to gun control. This is all just motivated reasoning because the court wants to advance a conservative agenda

Good point. It's interesting to think about this outsourcing as a relief valve Congress uses. Feels like a function of the monetary stakes for any decision are too high. Even freshmen congressional reps are too soaked in the financial implications of their own function that they punt their appointed power to the judicial branch.

Congress outsourced the decision to the judicial branch, the judicial branch said its for the elected representatives, aka Congress, to decide. Barring any supremacy from Congress, state laws and the consensus mechanisms of those states are the only laws available.
