We know civics. We also know how government abuses its powers.
SCOTUS can IGNORE laws which violate the Constitution and has been doing so for some time. Look at Article I, Section 8 and compare it to >80% of the Federals laws which have been enacted. Congress has no authority to pass ANY gun control legislation, but NFA 1933, GCA 1968 still stand. AWB 1994 sunset in 2004, or it would still be with us.
The Constitution says whatever the hell 5 out of 9 Supreme Court Justices currently want it to say.
