Re: SCOTUS criminalizes guns in car if in post office parking lot

How large is the area covered by the GFSZA? I thought I heard 1,000 feet from the edge of school property. If that is the case, then it is physically impossible for me to leave my city (from my house) without passing through a GFSZ.

I understand that federal law trumps state law, but doesn't the supreme law of the land trump this federal law?
A well armed militia being essential to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

Re: SCOTUS criminalizes guns in car if in post office parking lot

What essential public need requires that weapons be kept out of a parking lot in front of the Post Office? Surely, this must be a compelling national security priority for it to counter one of the essential personal rights that is guaranteed in the U.S. Constitution.

As it so happens, I need to stop by the Post Office at lunch today to mail some expensive electronics. Instead of parking in front of the building, I will park in a budget motel parking lot and walk two blocks, unarmed, while carrying my package. How does this make everyone so much safer that it justifies a restriction on my rights??????

Gov't "rightly" fears any document which limits its own power; so naturally, whenever given the chance to limit the scope of the document, it will do so. It must be resisted in those efforts.
Too bad that the 2nd amendment only protects the right to hunt [sarcasm alert]. It would be nice if we actually had the means to resist an over zealous government.
