We need to hope that the Heller decision is very strong on just how "fundamental" that self-defense and the right to keep and bear arms is. The accepted fiction in Kalifornia that there is no individual right to keep and bear arms could take quite a tumble soon.

As others have pointed out, it isn't going to seem very Constitutional to protect with strict scrutiny the penumbral emanation which permits the killing of the unborn and then deny that same level of protection to the right to life through self-defense enabled by the right to keep and bear arms.

Also of note; If the DC residents are found to have the RKBA in their homes, shouldn’t that right also extend beyond their homes? Surely our forefathers didn’t write the 2A to be restricted only to the home. Did people lose the RKBA when they left their homes and mounted their horses or rode off in a buggy?
