You wouldn't say that about Kelo. Why would you say it about guns?

Not so fast. Before Kelo, my property could be taken and given to a private developer if some politician said that doing so served a public use. After Kelo, my property could be taken and given to a private developer if some politician said that doing so served a public use. What changed, again?

Oh yeah, there was some legislative backlash when the current state of the law made headlines due to the Court decision ratifying the current state of affairs, and I think the same could happen re the 2A.

What are you talking about? Florida's eminent domain law protected your property from Kelo-type abuses.
