b. I don't see where the 2008 court ruling has any relevance to arming the militia.
Obviously, the unorganized militia still exists. Now please show me the current law or statute where its members are required to provide their own individual weapons?
Yeah? What state laws that restrict or prohibit private ownership of automatic weapons have ever been repealed?
Much to Gene's frustration I find myself going down the rabbit whole once again. I apologize Gene, I will try to stay on subject.
Judges and elections can have a grave impact on our 2ndA rights but no one will know for sure what Kavanaugh's opinion on the 2ndA will be until he is put to the test. Surprises, "in the past political arena" have occurred from both parties, being both positive and negative , so arguing over Kavanaugh's past rulings is rather fruitless until he is tested. There would be zero doubt if Hillary had appointed a judge and expectations for real pro gun changes would not even be in the realm of possibility.
I can not answer for your state Stan, but here are a few pro gun laws passed in mine. Getting a real pro gun Supreme court justice is a big deal. With the right case and a majority of pro gun judges hearing the NFA law or other restrictive gun laws, real change could occur. "Hope springs eternal"
