much of the war on drugs and gun control laws stand contrary to that doctrine noted in Cruikshank
how do you think the court will rule?
Well, if that's the case, then it should be a relatively simple matter to challenge those laws in the courts and get them struck down, shouldn't it?
As far as the Gamble case goes, though, given the lengthy stare decisis supporting the Separate Sovereigns doctrine, I can't even figure out why the Supreme Court even saw fit to hear this case. Chief Justice Fuller declared Separate Sovereigns to be "settled law" as far back as the 1898 Crossley decision. It should be about as open-and-shut a matter as the Court is likely to hear this term.
