Supreme court ruled that the 2nd amendment IS incorporated against the states. Couldn’t happen if it didn’t exist.

SCOTUS invents things that don't exist all the time in order to give the federal government more and more unconstitutional power. The "incorporation clause" and the Roe v. Wade opinion are good examples.

So you’re saying that the states can trample on the Bill of Rights regardless?
Because otherwise that is the case.

And incorporation doesn’t give FedGov more power, it says ‘Neither you nor the states can restrict this’.
Not that FedGov or the states LISTEN at all.
Look at NY, CA, and CT for examples of states ignoring that fact.
