U.S. Supreme Court turns down more 2nd Amend. cases
The U.S. Supreme Court continues to turn down Second Amendment cases for review. The Court has a responsibility to provide guidance for citizens, police, legislators, judges, etc. yet is failing miserably. In the meantime, many lower courts have turned out opinions which are inconsistent with the rationale of Heller and McDonald (e.g., Second Amendment protects those who "bear" arms--i.e, carry arms, but many Courts say the Amendment doesn't apply outside the home). Nero fiddles while Rome burns!
