I might sound like a single-issue voter, but I’m really not. Allow me to explain. I’ll almost always support the candidate with a bold and unapologetic history of protecting individual gun rights. You’ll notice I said “protecting.” That’s a critical distinction. No government grants or gives rights. Rights are something we all already own. Period, paragraph, and end of story. So the concept of protecting gun rights is a big deal. The government’s job is to preserve the rights, any type of rights, that we already have. |

I don't see how the Tyler case can cost us anything we already have. Either he loses, and the 'adjudicated mentally ill' remain prohibited persons for life, or he wins, and 2A rights are expanded from their current level of recognition.
That said, Breyer has said that there is no individual right and he wants to overturn Heller. (and after he was part of the unanimous vote for the individual right in Heller, he was just in the minority who claimed a total ban on handguns didn't violate that right)
And Hillary has vowed to give us more justices who agree with Breyer.

TO REMEMBER |
| The supposed quietude of a good mans allures the ruffian; while on the other hand, arms like laws discourage and keep the invader and the plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property. The same balance would be preserved were all the world destitute of arms, for all would be alike; but since some will not, others dare not lay them aside...Horrid mischief would ensue were one half the world deprived of the use of them... — Thomas Paine, I Writings of Thomas Paine at 56 (1894). |
