Another day, another maximalist reading of the 2nd Am.

This court, like one other so far, says the 2A forbids govt from barring receipt of a gun while a person is under felony indictment.

It says *10* historical laws isn't enough & even antebellum tradition can be too late.

Talk about being FUBAR.
