The Constitution affords Congress powers both expressed and implied (see McCulloch v. Maryland), as intended by the Founding Generation – this fact of law is settled, accepted, and beyond dispute.The same one that allows it to enact legislation prohibiting murder.

“But that's not in the Constitution” is a failed and ignorant 'argument.'

The necessary and proper clause. It's a tricky bitch, that one. Think it gives you wide powers and you get slammed down like a bodyslam from Andre the Giant. Think it's been beaten back to obscurity and BAM! It unloads a can of whoop-ass right in your face.
Though by itself that's not enough. The commerce clause is also part of the equation.

Congress does indeed have the power to enact legislation that is necessary and proper to carry into execution its other powers. So you're saying that the power to regulate commerce among the states somehow allows legislation that criminalizes the keeping and bearing of arms by the people of the several states? How so?

Oh no, I'm not going to bother explaining it to you. You lack the requisite intelligence to comprehend it in the first place. Not to mention that you don't want to understand it anyway.

You won't explain because you can't. You can't explain how keeping and bearing of arms by the people of the several states is in fact actually commerce among the several states.

I can't explain it to you. I also can't explain chemistry to a 4 year old.
I already told you, it flows from the commerce and necessary and proper clauses. See, that would make total sense if you actually understood how these parts of the constitution work. Well--maybe that's a bit unfair. I don't think anyone fully understands how the commerce clause works. Nevertheless, you're operating in an expanse of mindless and willful ignorance and can't even begin to scratch the surface.

Okay, let's start with the necessary and proper clause:
"To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof."
It allows making laws that exercise the foregoing powers. It does not allow any old law that congress feels like.
So that having been dispensed with, let's look at the commerce clause:
"To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes;"
Now are you trying to tell me that possessing a gun is commerce? And that it is commerce among the several states? Seriously?

As I suspected, you can't explain how you consider possessing a firearm to be the same as commerce among the states. It's like saying a horse is a fish. They're just not the same thing.
The only person who has said we can arm prisoners, is SwimExpert. I wouldn't classify him as a retard. Just as a coward who says silly things and then calls names and runs away when you address what he said.Only RETARDS believe in arming prisoners, criminals & terrorist!

And your 'argument' is just as invalid and devoid of merit.The only person who has said we can arm prisoners, is SwimExpert. I wouldn't calssify him as a retard.
