In response to a series of school shootings across the country, the Kingston Common Council may be taking action to garner federal and state support for more stringent safety protocols regarding firearms. Alderman Reynolds Scott-Childress, who authored the local memorializing resolution, said although the spirit is to promote a broad range of anti-gun violence efforts, there are specific details he would like to see state and federal officials tackle. |

The Supreme Court in US. v. Miller said that there are certain weapons that are protected, namely, arms in common use that specifically have militia utility.
And you can't get beyond that barrier.
Period. |

TO REMEMBER |
| For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
