"[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. |

TO REMEMBER |
| As an individual, I believe, very strongly, that handguns should be banned and that there should be stringent, effective control of other firearms. However, as a judge, I know full well that the question of whether handguns can be sold is a political one, not an issue of products liability law, and that this is a matter for the legislatures, not the courts. The unconventional theories advanced in this case (and others) are totally without merit, a misuse of products liability laws. Judge Buchmeyer, Patterson v. Gesellschaft, 1206 F.Supp. 1206, 1216 (N.D. Tex. 1985) |
