When Heller was decided, I was here on these pages saying that the right to keep and bear arms will be restricted to your home. The preparation for such a limitation was staged in Heller.

After that, the left will try to limit the type of firearm you are allowed to keep in your home.

The general rationale of Heller is that a "long standing" condition becomes constitutional. That sleight of hand was employed to preserve the GCA of 1968 and similar federal restrictions on the right to keep and bear arms.

I agree with you - that same rationale can be used to uphold long-standing limitations on issuance of "bear outside of the home" conditions. Just hold that non-uniformity in this regard is to be expected, and the question is a political one, not a matter of personal right that the courts will recognize.

The courts are hostile to the right to keep and bear arms. They would not take this case if the intention was to allow more people to bear arms in public. Several circuis have already weight in, that way. SCOTUS will choose among them for the rationale. Decision is made before the case is heard.

The left partisans in the streets ignore the law. The communist politicians ignore any law they want-sanctuary cities. The deep state traitorous goons ignore ANY law they want without consequences.

Will conservatives ignore a bad decision here? Will conservatives take being prosecuted when leftist and the government clearly are not prosecuted? Will conservatives do a Wyatt Earp and tell the FBI Johnny Behans “I don’t think I’ll let you arrest me today Behan”? Do we have to break the law to eventually get back to the rule of law? The rule of law is dead, it died in 2016, we just don’t realize or want to face reality.

If the left takes our firearms it really is over for freedom in this world for the foreseeable future. There is no USA coming to our rescue. Will conservatives finally say enough and break the law as our leftist counterparts in and out of government are now doing?
