You’re truly an ignoramus.
Before 2010, the Second Amendment applied solely to the Federal government – hence Heller, as DC is under Federal jurisdiction.
It wasn’t until 2010 that the Second Amendment was incorporated to the states and local governments, hence McDonald.
You are making no sense.
You are saying that the 2nd amendment only restricted the federal government, and that the 14th was only incorporated after the Heller and McDonald decisions of 2010.
That is exactly what I have been saying.
That means all federal firearms laws were always illegal, and that there were always some individual firearm rights that states were never supposed to be violating.
The actual rights of individual can not legally change.
All that can happen is that the courts can stop previous violations of individual rights that previous courts failed to act on.
