Agree........loaded question indeed !....we’re screwed.

I tend to diagree. The grammar of the sentence assumes that "individuals", in this case those not affiliated with any state regulated militia, *have* Second Amendment rights. The very thing that DC argued against before the Court of Appeals.

violate the Second Amendment rights of individuals who are not affiliated with any state-regulated militia

Ask yourself who "Second Amendment rights" in that sentence are said to belong to (are "of"). The answer "individuals who are not affiliated with any state-regulated militia."

I don't who wrote that sentence, but at least the minimum number of Justices signed off on it, and I find it very promising indeed.
