The Miller cause does address whether or not the right to keep and bear arms is an individual right. The justices had other issues on the table when they made the ruling. There are portions of the ruling which are pro-second amendment. Most importantly, the ruling rejects the view that militia is somehow the same as the National Guard. Instead, it defines the militia quite broadly to essentially include all citizens.

I was trying for sarcasm with Nosanchuk's quote. Looks like I failed. Maybe an /sarcasm was needed?
