"But expanding gun rights beyond the home and into the public sphere presents questions concerning valued liberties and activities of other law-abiding citizens."
That is an interesting question, but not one of the most important ones. And as such, it is a diversion from the questions "We the People" and our institutions should be asking ourselves, whether it was intended to divert us, like one of Mayor Pete's "shiny objects, or not.
Much more important should be "Why did ordinary Americans feel it was necessary to storm the Capitol Building on January 6th?" It was a rather extraordinary event. Something extraordinary must have been motivating them. Shouldn't someone be asking why And why now?
It has been a very long time since Americans showed such interest in daily carry of firearms, either openly or concealed. What is driving them to conclude they need to carry now? Shouldn't someone be asking that question as well?
