Whichever way it goes, next month is going to prove interesting.
Also 'Clauses intended to insure the possession of arms and ammunition by all who were subject to military service appear in all the important enactments concerning military affairs.
And every of the said officers, non-commissioned officers, and privates, shall constantly keep the aforesaid arms, accoutrements, and ammunition, ready to be produced whenever called for by his commanding officer.
Besides these explicit references to ammunition, there are the de facto descriptions of it. All the laws restricting the sale of ammo, and types of ammo such as frangible, need to be challenged, assuming the correct decision next month. Say a prayer.
Indeed.

On the other, I wonder what would have happened if Miller's attorney showed up there?
What's most interesting to me on this is that it was 9-0 despite a normally very split SCOTUS in that period. I think this decision could have been much more favorable if Miller's counsel showed up, despite this being a rather nasty test case.
Back in the early 1970’s the MSM was extremely anti-handgun, calling for the ban on all handguns.
Many TV shows had an anti-handgun line written into the scripts and we were bombarded weekly with anti-handgun propaganda.
Then the anti-handgun media discovered the US vs Miller and went ballistic.
Now every script had written into it an anti-handgun line using Miller as a “proof”. Even All In The Family and Barny Miller’s scripts spewed tha anti-gun line that “the Miller decision in the 1930’s proved that handguns wern’t ‘militia’ weapons and could be banned.”
On the other hand RIFLES and shotguns got the media’s blessing. That was before the MSM found out the new term...”Assault Rifle”.
Oh for the good old days of 1961 when Thomas J. Dodd and Emanual Cellar said...”We don’t want to ban your guns. We ONLY want to register Handguns! Long guns will not be affected!”

Regarding whites in general, one-quarter of those surveyed said they believed white doctors had invented AIDS in the laboratory in order to commit genocide, and nearly half said that the CIA and FBI had flooded black neighborhoods with drugs and guns so that blacks would harm one another—findings that suggest Jeremiah Wright is no outlier among blacks.
I'm not crazy about the last author, but she has some interesting things to say.
From time to time, I’ll ping on noteworthy articles about politics, foreign and military affairs. FReepmail me if you want on or off my list.

The second ammendment basically tells all regulatory authority (Fed, State, County, Local, etc.) to "pound-sand" with regard to infringements on the right to keep and bear arms. And if it possesses any usefullness at all in the hands of a citizen (militia) called to put-down say, an insurrection, even the lowly potato gun would qualify.
The second ammendment doesn't recognize state-lines, county-lines, city-limits, or school grounds. What it does recognize is that without it, you sure as hell, will not be living in a "free state".
