The right to keep and bear arms, fully explained — from its militia-era origins through Heller, McDonald, Bruen, and Rahimi, to the "history and tradition" test courts are still learning to apply today.
Unlike most of the Bill of Rights, the Second Amendment's core meaning — an individual right, or a right tied to militia service — wasn't resolved by the Supreme Court until District of Columbia v. Heller in 2008, and the legal test used to decide modern gun-law cases wasn't announced until 2022's Bruen decision. This ebook walks through all of it in plain English, for a suggested $24.99 donation.
