It IS Disheartening

“It is disheartening to see one of our original freedom fighter colonies decide to take a page from General Thomas Gage,” said Adam Kraut, FPC’s Director of Legal Strategy. “During the Massachusetts ratifying convention, Samuel Adams proposed an amendment guaranteeing that the constitution would not prevent peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms.

Admitting that I'm wondering why the complaint only mentions the militia once in passing as a 2A quote under "Constitutional provisions."

We need to see more emphasis placed on core purpose, which would make clear how such infringements undermine "the security of a free State."

As such, the marketplace is essential to freedom. Constitutional scholar Edwin Vieira Jr. has demonstrated, among other places, in his Motion for Leave to File Brief Amici Curiae to the Supreme Court of the United States in Kolbe v. Hogan:
