Hold your breath, America. This decision could be historic. Either a very bad precedence and potentially disrupting conclusion will be made, or we will all be collectively sighing in relief that the Supreme Court has finally put the argument at rest after ducking it for so long.

The 2nd Amendment like the other nine included in the Bill of Rights were written for the individual, and addresses the individual. The Bill of Rights spells out individual rights that the government cannot take away, and the right to bear arms is just as specific and clear as free speech and other rights. That is why the Supreme Court and scholars have not cared to visit it. You won’t find volumes filled with opinions on it in law books. There have only been a few court decisions on the 2nd Amendment in federal courts.

I’m not a lawyer or a legal scholar, far from it — but I can see that there are two clauses mentioned in the Amendment. The Militia Clause and the Right to Arms clause.

“A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state {COMMA} the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.”

– The framers were clear, both in their intent and language. Guaranteed right to have guns for self defense, the government cannot take that away.
– Guarantees the right of citizens to own guns in order to participate in militias to defend their states or national government
– The framers distrusted government, especially one that will not trust its citizens to own guns

I’m confident that the Supreme Court will uphold the Constitution and the freedom to individuals mentioned in the early Amendments.

WASHINGTON — The nine justices of the highest court in the land will meet Tuesday to hear arguments on who the Founding Fathers intended when they called for the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms: a well regulated militia or all individuals.
