robertpaulsen also said:"Based on other (non-second-amendment) cases, I would not have expected the USSC in Miller to limit the weapon to an association with a militia arm."
Tell us again, robertpaulsen, how a remand is not a ruling. Are you confusing the concept of final disposition with that of a court ruling? Complex cases have many court rulings, sometimes conflicting rulings due to involvement of appeals courts. Some rulings, such as the original dismissal of the case against Miller are overturned by Supreme Court rulings. Are you going to continue claiming that the lower court was not "over-ruled" by the Supreme Court. Do you really think that the lower court's ruling can be set aside WITHOUT a ruling by the higher?
Yep, Miller is one useful case all right. We don't dare set it aside with a powerful ruling like that, says William Tell.
