"[T]he Second Amendment is still 'unsettled law[.]'
It most certainly IS settled law, to the extent that the SC has established once and for all that it protects a core individual, fundamental right to keep and bear arms and to use them for lawful purposes. That many lower courts have ignored the Heller and McDonald rulings doesn't change that fact. The reason that there are cases still in the pipeline for certiorari is because leftist courts are generating them, blatantly ignoring the high Court's rulings and standards of review pertaining to the Second Amendment.
The only place it is 'unsettled' is inside your cranium. Out here in the real world of facts and logic, things are quite different. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
By calling attention to a well-regulated militia for the security of the Nation, and the right of each citizen to keep and bear arms, our Founding Fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny, which gave rise to the second amendment, will ever be a major danger to our Nation, the amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic military-civilian relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of the country. For that reason I believe the second amendment will always be important. --JOHN F. KENNEDY |
