JAIME CAETANO v. MASSACHUSETTS

[Subdeacon Joe]

This SCOTUS ruling, a rare per curium. and without dissent, pretty well shuts the door on the socialist anti-civil rights insistence that the 2nd only covers flintlocks.

"We found the argument “that only those arms in existence in the 18th century are protected by the Second Amendment” not merely wrong, but “bordering on the frivolous.”

"Electronic stun guns are no more exempt from the Second Amendment’s "protections, simply because they were unknown to

the First Congress, than electronic communications are

exempt from the First Amendment, or electronic imaging

devices are exempt from the Fourth Amendment"
