#1 States are suing over the issue

Article I, Section 8, U.S. Constitution.

The Congress shall have the power to...
To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining the Militia, and for governing such Part them as may be employed in the Service of the United States, reserving to the States respectively, the Appointment of Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress.

Seems clear cut to me. However, what do I know, its old colonial English, and the Courts have long held, only they know the secret language of the Constitution. It was never intended for us mere mortals to comprehend.

#2 Well if there are going to be complaints, we better forget about it.
