If, as petitioners believe, their safety and the safety of other law-abiding members of the community would be enhanced by the possession of hand-guns in the home for self-defense, then the Second Amendment right protects the rights of minorities and other residents of high-crime areas whose needs are not being met by elected public officials.

Made me smile.

Did the Court really say this? If so, this struct me as possibly quite dangerous: If "needs ARE being met by elected public officials", the left will take this as permission to restrict such "enhancements" (private ownership).

I have not yet read the decision. So, I do not know how extensive the protection that it affords the 2nd Amendment against State infringement.

He already has a plan to get around it. No one is surprised.
