I think the most important thing to remember about laws is that all laws are only enforceable, eventually, at the point of a gun. Anyone who does not believe that see Ed and Elaine Brown's standoff in NH against armed federal agents over failure to pay taxes.
Here's what I have come up with to explain my take on the matter:
Laws passed by the government are ultimately only enforceable against the citizens at the point of a government agent wielded and directed gun.
The United States Constitution, the highest law of the land, ultimately is only enforceable against the federal government at the point of We, The People's wielded and directed guns. Hence the importance of the 2A.
I think every law passed by the United States Congress should be required to be prefaced by, "Under threat of lethal force against the Citizens of the United States of America we hereby pass the following: " Might make them think a little bit about how truly serious the potential effects of their laws are. Can you imagine the worst dictators in history willing to pass a law that could eventually allow lethal force against a citizen over what kind of light bulb they use in their home? Or what sorts of signs they post in their offices? Or all sorts of piddly a$$ controlling laws that congress has passed intruding on our day to day lives that could eventually lead to arrest at the point of a gun and if resisted, the death of a citizen.
Can you see sitting in the ever-after talking to other dead spirits and being asked how you died and having to say, "Well, it's like this. I stocked up on iridescent light bulbs before the CFC bulb requirement went into effect. My neighbor wanted some so I agreed to sell them a few boxes. Well, the gov't heard about my illegal sale of iridescent bulbs, and sent me a subpoena to appear in court. Well I thought it was stupid so I didn't go. A few weeks later federal agents showed up at my house. They didn't identify themselves immediately and as I went to adjust my OC pistol for comfort I was shot 17 times and died. Over a light bulb."
So yeah, I hope they get 3.5 mill. And I hope the new Heller case as to semi-autos is won and they get another 3.5 mill. And I hope that all the law abiding gun owners in this country with law suits pending over having their rights violated get a big check that is not in the best interests of the city or state and their lawyers go back and sue for more millions. Let the politicians explain to the citizens that their local taxes are being raised because of the huge losses to law suits for violating citizen rights and hopefully, a peaceful rebellion follows limiting government back to its constitutional role.
