That revolution came, and went.
Kepler, I think the ruling overturned outright bans on gun ownership and possession in the home. Which was, I think, the most egregious problem the court addressed. Most of the list here looks OK to me.

*** Bans on private sales of firearms;
*** Bans of so-called assault weapons and other "unusual" weapons (that's the actual language Scalia uses);
*** Bans on firearms on government property;
*** Bans on certain calibers of ammunition;
*** Bans on high-powered hunting scopes;
*** One-month waiting periods;
*** One-gun-a-month schemes;
*** Mandatory ammunition fingerprinting. |
