So you support the legislation? What about the fact that the lawsuits were designed simply to put firearms makers out of business, isn’t that a restriction of commerce by one state (or district) against the state with that firearms maker?

Not in my opinion. I take a very narrow view of the Commerce Clause. But we agree on its constitutional now anyway, so it is irrelevant. I have seen the Commerce Clause perverted by liberals too many times (the most recent example is with ObamaCare), so I am hardly eager to take an expansive view of federal power via that avenue.
