The Supreme Court has the issue of the right to arms before it now - something the Powers That Be have avoided for decades. Its here babe! Show down. Something tells me the Establishment has at least five high cards in its hand wearing 5 black robes. As Thomas Jefferson complained back in the early 19th century to a friend in a letter, the time for a new 2nd revolution was ripe and pass due, because the Supreme Court had become a power bigger than the Constituion. Well they fought that war later, 1860s and lost. Supreme court won, Yankee bankers won. My own grandfathers in the Union Army won, but in reality maybe they lost....the Constitution.

Anyway the chips are down for us now. Right to arms or no? What I'd like to see is how those justices will deal with the word: "ARMS" because back in the late 1700s and early 1800s it simply meant: Weapons of War. Not muskets. And back in those days well ordered militias did have cannons, gernades and mortars. An in the Webster's 1825 dictionary ARMS was defined as just that, along with swords, muskets and so on.
