The 2nd Amendment was incorporated to the states in 2010 in the SCOTUS case McDonald vs. Chicago. There is no freaking way an across the board ban could be considered constitutional in light of Heller and McDonald.

I don’t know if you have caught on or not, but the Democrats have openly said,”The Constitution can go to hell, we are going to do as we damn well please”.With that, came the dare to us to stop them.

I do recall the McDonald case now, and it was a long time coming. Unfortunately it once again misapplied the due process clause of the 14 th amendment. The privileges and immunities clause incorporates, not due process. Due process is about process, which is why it’s called due process. But lets not nitpick.

I was wondering when someone would mention this...

Also, McDonald vs. Chicago recently is what applied the Second Amendment to the States...specifically... Illinois.
