"[T]he Second Amendment is still 'unsettled law[.]'
It most certainly IS settled law, to the extent that the SC has established once and for all that it protects a core individual, fundamental right to keep and bear arms and to use them for lawful purposes. That many lower courts have ignored the Heller and McDonald rulings doesn't change that fact. The reason that there are cases still in the pipeline for certiorari is because leftist courts are generating them, blatantly ignoring the high Court's rulings and standards of review pertaining to the Second Amendment.
The only place it is 'unsettled' is inside your cranium. Out here in the real world of facts and logic, things are quite different. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
As civil rulers, not having their duty to the people before them, may attempt to tyrannize, and as the military forces which must be occasionally raised to defend our country, might pervert their power to the injury of their fellow citizens, the people are confirmed by the article in their right to keep and bear their private arms. Tench Coxe in `Remarks on the First Part of the Amendments to the Federal Constitution' under the Pseudonym "A Pennsylvanian" in the Philadelphia Federal Gazette, June 18, 1789 at 2 col. 1. |
