"...on the basis of its radically expanded interpretation of the Second Amendment,"
The radical bit was when it was limited to less than the current interpretation. Restoration is in progress, but be clear that it's not over until the tens of thousands of gun laws are gone.
"while giving no weight to the state’s interest in reducing the number of firearms in the public sphere."
Correct. The state's interest is of no consequence when it contradicts the Constitution.
"Ultimately, all that mattered was the right of “law-abiding citizens” ... to decide they wanted to carry a gun to protect themselves."
Right again! That's the funny thing about rights. You don't need a reason nor permission from any authority to express them. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation, that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands? — Patrick Henry, 3 J. Elliot, Debates in the Several State Conventions 45, 2d ed. Philadelphia, 1836 |
