I think that for most of our history there was a nuanced reading of the Second Amendment until the decision by the late Justice Scalia, and that there was no argument until then that localities and state and federal government had a right, as we do with every amendment, to impose reasonable regulations.Translation:
HOORAY! SCALIA IS DEAD, NOW I CAN DO ANYTHING I WANT TO DO!
.. which means that the Second Amendment is as dead as a Liberal with An Agenda can make it.
Any voter with a single-issue priority knows what to do now.
And since the Second Amendment neck is on the chopping block (and nobody important stands in her way), "The Beast" has free reign to undermine any other Constitutional Rights which she finds inconvenient, distasteful, or at least challenging to her ultimate authority.
Welcome to 1984, Boys and Girls!
(I had NO idea back in 1969 that I was fighting for this.)

The 9th Court held that there is no right to carry a concealed firearm in public. Does that negate the CC laws on the West Coast.
No.
But it might just provide an interesting "Test Case" in the next SCOTUS session.
(You DO have a very expensive constitutional lawyer on retainer ... right?)
