[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 1123031, member: 17969"] I dont know if you can read or not, and I presume you have some concept of of it, I ask you if you "MISSED" the following words in the text you posted and cited?

[/U]In Heller, the court ruled only that Heller had a right to possess a gun IN THE HOME and did not extend that right to CARRYING THE WEAPON ON THE STREET. This is why they did not want to hear the recent case and allowed the states appellate courts rulings to STAND on gun control. The high court knows it would rule against GUN owners, the NRA and voters like yourself by hearing the case, and it was more prudent to "lay blame" onto the states appellate courts instead of being the ones who validate the states gun control laws. For now, states have the rights to pass laws like NEW YORK did, and that will limit all kinds of weapons. No matter what you or I think about the issue, the high court showed its hand and did not protect GUN owners. A total victory for gun control activists. Peace TOS [/QUOTE]
