[QUOTE="inactive, post: 1191244, member: 7488"] I agree with this, as does the SCOTUS. However, regulation does not mean elimination, and the premise of MacDonald v. Chicago was, and I quote the 1st page of the Decision (emphasis mine): Since the right was in their mind not reasonably regulated, but rather eliminated, as it was also found in Heller v DC. Therefore they demanded the lower court rehear the case. I understand that some may have a different option of regulation of our laws, including the Bill of Rights, but in this instance it is the the SCOTUS's option that matters, and they said the RKBA was not regulated but rather outright denied by the handgun ban. Justice Thomas even said it more clearly than the majority opinion: Which reads: And in his judicial opinion, the 2nd Amendment is one that is a privilege of the Citizens of the Unites States. The Chicago law was effectively encroaching upon this, in the eyes of Justice Thomas. [/QUOTE]
