Re Scotus and States Rights, you said: like a states right to make its own laws on the death penalty??

No, more like a state's right to interfere with the 2nd Amendment.

Actually, when it comes to your RKBA, that is a states rights issue.

Your RKBA is defined and protected by your state constitution, not the second amendment.

The second amendment is a restriction on the federal government only. And we should thank God every morning that it is so, and pray that it remains that way.

I do not want the federal government protecting my RKBA. No more than I want a fox protecting my hen house.
