    The latest Heller V. D.C. was a Deep State sham to cover up the original. A capital police officer sues so that you can possess firearms in your own home, and everyone cheers it as a win. The NRA knew about the original but never used it to win any cases. They sat on their hands when the .gov wanted to cover it up.
    Interesting. Do you have a source for the earlier case? I'm not aware of it and (duh) can't
    find anything on it. As if google even would.
    Oh, and don't get me started on the NRA.
    While many claim to support the right, precious few support the practice.

    It was buried by the deep state. When I first brought it up on the forum years ago, I found it in the table of contents in a book I found on the Haithi Trust. I don't remember the name of the book, but I do remember that it was printed in the 1920's. When I went to the page that the case was supposed to be on it was replaced with the modern Heller V. D.C.. I was about to post a link to the book on the forum when my computer crashed. When I went looking again the book was gone.

    I only remember Edmund Heller because of the SCOTUS case that was named after him. I researched all of our rights to death back when the internet was pure. Back when you could look up facts and not have search results full of opinions.

    Do you have any links to that case? I can't really find anything on any cases with him. In any event, he died before Miller in 1939, so that probably is why it wouldn't be cited.

    I don't think he was a rough rider either. His bio says he was in college during the Spanish American War. He was friends with Teddy and accompanied him to Africa in the teens.

    If I had links, I would have provided them. This information was intentionally buried after 2002. I don't know why I would associate him with the Rough Riders if he wasn't one.

    When I lived in a small town in Vermont, me and the Postmaster who was also an avid shooter were good friends. I can't tell you how many times I brought a new firearms purchase into the Post Office to show him and let him drool for a bit. He would open the back door for me and in I would go right on into the inner sanctum. Truth be told, this also was a one man run Post Office, so he had a lot of leeway here.

    What about school grounds? Wouldnt this ruling strike that federal gun restriction down as well.
