Ready my lips: There is no constitutional authority for the federal government to regulate private sales of firearms, or of anything else. Its authority extends only to commerce. Private sales are not commerce, and there is no other provision empowering the federal government to regulate them.
The Dayton mayor would be better advised to rub elbows with the state legislators. There is nothing in the U.S. Constitution that impinges on the state's powers in that regard. If the state constitution will allow it, then they can do it - IF they have the votes.
It ain't rocket science. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
