Except in 2018 the US military uses short barrel shotguns. So I doubt the Trump SC would agree. (As a matter of fact, thanks to Obama's BATF, in 2018 you can buy a short barrel not-a-shotgun, without additional NFA paperwork.)

A. Miller never showed
B. What exactly were "trench sweepers"?
C. The author uses the "states rights" interpretation, which was shot down by Heller.
At least the truth comes out, sort of.
I suspect that Justice Stevens has forgotten the circumstances surround the passage of the 2nd amendment and the entire Bill of Rights.
The Constitution had failed to be ratified with limitations on the new government. Ratification was only possible WITH the concurrent passage of the Bill of Rights. I suspect that if the Bill of Rights is attacked it will unbind the colonies.
I could be wrong, but I hope we never have to find out! The consequences would be devastating.
This, and rightly so !
Our Armed Forces are by and large patriots, but those maggots are the true 'jackbooted thugs'.
See: Waco, Ruby Ridge, et al.
I fully support the left trying to repeal the 2nd thru a Constitutional amendment. But, they won’t.
What I do not support is the left, a bunch of cowards, doing the equivalent thru unconstitutional means, thru the courts, thru bad law, thru unconstitutional statutes and bureaucratic restrictions and regulations.
The force itself, currently numbering about 125, is responsible for security of the court building, its inhabitants, and it visitors. Additionally, they provide personal protection to the Justices at all times.
Does stevens want his protection to give up their weapons?
Hell no, he just wants me to give up my protection so some snot nosed little prick named Hogg will feel good.
Piss off/on jps.
At least he is calling for it to be done via the amendment process, which is Constitutional.
The Left usually achieves such ends via slimy underhanded tricks.
What is Weaponized Empathy? It's when you use people's morals and empathy to manipulate them into serving your own political agenda. It's basically an advanced kind of guilt-tripping designed to get people who really do care about others to vote for their own enslavement.
Guns kill children! We need to do everything we can to get rid of guns! Don't you agree? What? Do you want to see kids murdered? You don't hate little children, do you? I know you're a caring person and you would never want to see children die. Surely you don't have a problem with just a little sensible gun control, right? You're a good person, right?
It's a bit like using love to get a partner to go along with something they really do not want to do. "If you really loved me, you'd let me do it."
And there it is. We knew it was coming. But Oh they said we’re all just freaking out for nothing cause nobody is trying to take away our guns. Uh huh. We’re not idiots. We could see the writing on the wall.
Yeesh, when start off with a paragraph this wrong, you know it's going to be a doozy.
1. Rallies do not show evidence of public support.
2. The 2006 nationwide pro-illegal rallies were much more impressive.
3. Nothing about that rally demands any more "respect" from the Right than the Left gives to the annual March for Life anti-abortion rally in D.C.
... good thing he has nothing to do with the US Constitution.

Little Johnnie wants to go drinking with his high school classmates. Mom & Dad say “NO!”. Little Johnnie tweets his classmates and a thousand of his friends show up at Mom & Dad’s door demanding Little Johnnie be allowed to drink with them.
So now it’s alright.
LOL.
tru dat.
Another retarded ‘legal scholar’ who doesn’t understand the difference between the National Guard and a militia in the sense that the Founders meant.

Typical Libtards Overreach.
Should Justice Stevens now be recused (forcefully) from any case before the court that concerns guns or the 2A?
These hypocrites don’t mind about the innocents who are murdered by those who would receive the death penalty. The criminal can use the death penalty, but the justice system can’t? What kind of evil world is that?
=:-)
The right to self defense is what they really want to eliminate.
It makes it easier to eliminate US.
