Supreme Court Gun Record Is Sparse Ahead of Likely Rights Expansion [More]
Not to be all negative and everything, but I’m also expecting them to volunteer more compromising statements like Scalia did in Heller that will feed into the Democrats’ “no right is absolute” deception.

No expansion in the works.
What is contemplated is a partial restoration.
They get points for finding a couple of important facts, which swing things in a direction they don’t want to acknowledge.
US v Cruikshank: They get points for even mentioning Cruikshank, but missed part of the ruling. SCOTUS also ruled the RKBA did not come from the Second Amendment but was a pre-existing natural right.
US v Miller: “The court found that the type of weapon involved bore no relationship to the preservation of a well-regulated militia, and was not protected under the Second Amendment.”
The court found no such thing. What the court said was “absent any evidence” they could not rule on the connection. They never said there was no connection, just that evidence proving a connection was not presented to the court.
