SCOTUS also handed down a real turkey gun control decision. Reckless conduct is sufficient basis for a lifetime ban on firearms.

Maybe some state should pass a law saying any women who has been convicted of a crime involving reckless conduct is bared from having an abortion.... The court kind of painted themselves into a box saying an individual can lose one constitutional right (gun ownership) just for a conviction on a minor offense but can't lose another (abortion - even though that isn't really a constitutional right, but that's another argument).

Only if one expects the court to be consistent.

After reviewing a substantial number of court cases (not just SCOTUS), it becomes abundantly clear that courts are outcome driven. If the logic falls in place, fine, but hand-waving will do.

And why not? Nobody is going to do anything about it.
