It is maddening the way these judges slice and dice and parse and whittle.
The question isn't how MUCH a law burdens a constitutionally protected right, but whether it burdens it AT ALL.
Constitutional protection doesn't amount to squat if legislators divine how much protection the government will allow, and courts collaborate in that subjugation of ironclad proscriptions.
Once and for all, there is no such thing as a "living constitution." The very concept is a diametric contradiction to the core of U.S. founding principles. |

TO REMEMBER |
| We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
