Yet, with Heller on the books, cases in Buzzardās flock furnish us with little instructive value. Thatās because Hellermade clear that the Second Amendment is, and always has been, an individual right centered on self-defense; it has never been a right only to be exercised in connection with a militia.
While Heller does not directly address carry outside the home all of the references in Scaliaās opinion directly speak to ābearing armsā as being outside of the home.
Writing for the majority, Judge M. Margaret McKeown said the inability to buy particular guns did not infringe the 2nd Amendment right to self-defense in the home.
By āparticular gunsā they mean anything designed after 1993.
And from the excerpts of her ruling Iāve read, it would seem Judge Mary Margaret is under the impression the stamp goes on the part that stays with the body.
