US Supreme Court upholds individual right to gun ownership
Its not that there is no visibility, but that you hiding from the person trying to shoot you.
If I'm hiding and the guy can't see me, then again there is no problem.

The guy is looking for you and is more than likely to find you.
Then when he comes close to me, I'll kick him in the nuts and take his gun and pistolwhip his nuts some more. Then I'd stomp on his nuts and poke his eyes and put his nuts in a vice and crush them.

Can anyone give me a legal reason why this wasn't a 9-0 decision?

For those who aspire to live in a high cost, high tax, big government place, our nation and the world offers plenty of options. Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for. –Senator Rubio
The crimes of passion will likely still happen, but a lamp to the head is not on the same scale as a bullet to the head...wouldn't you agree?
Well...dead is dead if you ask me.
"I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you're not patriotic. We should stand up and say we are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with any administration." - Hillary Clinton, 2003
A lamp to the head isn't lethal...not usually or anywhere near as lethal as a bullet to the head. Probably knock the guy out at the worst.

The folks deciding it were a bunch of lawyers.
I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891
It seems like a legal no brainer if ever there was one.

Really?
To me it seems obviously possible to make a case that there are limits to the right to bear arms. For instance, why can't private citizens own F-22s with Mavericks or buy Tomahawk cruise missiles.
There's a line to be drawn, why shouldn't handguns be one of them?
Since there is a precedent of a line being drawn, it's just a matter of where it is drawn and the Bill of Rights isn't explicit on that.
But IANAL. But, I can see the argument.

I'm going to go with "never". And the US will be worse off for it.
That's why you're Canadian.

What's your point, Asher? Lines are drawn with other individual rights all the time (ex. Free speech). Does that mean they don't exist in your view?

My point was it should be trivial to see how a lawyer can take issue with it, thus not making it a slam-dunk case.
I understand lines are drawn, that is not my point and in fact I made that explicitly clear.
My point was it is not completely clear in the bill of rights where the line is drawn. Thus it is not a "slam-dunk case". Thus, you are being silly. And the cool glasses don't work for nerds with uncool glasses such as yourself (I am saying this in theory, I do not think you own cool glasses in real life).

You aren't really making any sense nor do you seem to be making any real attempt to answer the question.

I made perfect sense and I answered your question perfectly. Perhaps when you're not looking for the answer you want instead of a correct answer you'll comprehend it.
