Does the right to bear arms extend to all Americans or only "A well regulated militia?"

I think it's fair to say that you can disregard the militia clause entirely 4 at least next 30 years or so.

@BobsGotBalls Scalia is dead but probably more influential then he was when he was alive.

I think Heller was a terrible decision on that point, but I doubt it's going to be over ruled.

Best shot for sanity seems to me to be rulings saying it doesn't prime state interests in safety, etc.

Eventually, I think Heller will be irrelevant, but I'm not thinking anytime soon.

Kavanaugh could possibly be impeached.

You might be zeroing in on the very reason for citizens rights to bear arms.
