24. Need proof?
Tell us what happened in the Navegar suit to overturn the ban...(They lost, and the Supreme Court didn't bother to hear the appeal).

What happened in the Olympic Arms suit to overturn the ban? They lost again.

Worth noting that both of these suits were brought under the grounds that the ban violated the Commerce and Equal Protection clauses. Neither plaintiff even pretended the second amendment forbade the ban, and the second amendment wasn't brought up by either plaintiff.

Tell us, with, why didn't the NRA sue to overturn the ban on second amendment grounds? Why didn't the GOA sue? Answer: They knew the AWB was nno more unconstitutional than it was mint-flavored.
