CT: Murphy introduces background-check gun bill as ‘long-haul strategy’

Sen. Chris Murphy on Wednesday reintroduced a background-check gun bill he’s been trying to make law since a gunman killed 20 first graders and six educators in Newtown at the end of 2012.

Nearly five years later, Congress has yet to approve a substantive gun control measure, even the least controversial of those gun control advocates have proposed – a bill that would expand FBI background checks of gun buyers.

Senator Murphy, from where does the federal government gain the authority to regulate private sales? They are not commerce, and no other part of the Constitution delegates that power.

Where do they get the power?
The Commerce Clause, the same as they get the power to regulate grain grown on your own land for your own personal use.

Yeah, I know, it's totally wrong, but it's the Supreme Court, so they're always right no matter how obviously wrong they are.
