I have always thought this is where the Supreme Court could really gut the Second amendment, by simply pointing out that there were restrictions on gun ownership from day 1. When the Constitution became law of the land in 1789, it did not rescind the laws prohibiting slaves from owning firearms. My fear is that someday the left will send a "street smart" Justice to the Supreme Court who has common sense and might figure this out, instead of the "book smart" types they insist on.
