Considering the history of you and that line of discussion, may I politely request that if you want to discuss the “Miller vs. Trench Guns” argument, please do so in another thread.

Suffice to say there is reasonable doubt as to whether Miller’s gun was “militia suitable” or not. I’d be happy to link to further discussion thereof when relevant, but don’t want that to derail this thread (as has happened several times before).

Let’s focus on the Parker appeal here.

"may I politely request that if you want to discuss the “Miller vs. Trench Guns” argument, please do so in another thread."

I received this post from you by mistake. Did you mean to direct it to NY.SS-Bar9, the poster who originally brought it up in post #128?

"Suffice to say there is reasonable doubt as to whether Miller’s gun was “militia suitable” or not."

I agree. But that doesn't change the fact that the U.S. Supreme Court in Miller implied that only Militia-type arms were protected by the second amendment.

"Let’s focus on the Parker appeal here."

Ah. You mean the appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court? The U.S. Supreme Court which may look at past rulings, like Miller, to make their decision? But Miller can't be mentioned in this thread?

What a maroon.
