Most here understand the 2d clearly recognized and protected our preexisting right to bear arms, and was thought an essential element for ratification of the proposed Constitution.

Clearly, that recognition and protection seems to be slipping away.

D.C. v Keller (the right to bear within one’s home, limited to federal enclaves) was a 5/4 decision.

McDonald v. Chicago, which extended “within the home” to the states, was a 5/4 decision.

Those are close calls under any view.

just about anything that upholds the constitution is a 5-4 decision these days. not good.
