No military capability is necessary to satisfy the 2d Amendment, because it's an individual right unconnected to the militia.

Just for context, a simple hunting rifle today would be more advanced than someone in the Revolutionary War could have dreamed. You don't need an AR15...a Remington 30-06 would be suitably impressive to them.

But, it was Scalia who decided that it's an individual right not connected with the militia. And while I concede that is the current law, it needs to be overturned. And I will support any efforts to do so. But it will take a long time because we have a wildly conservative SCOTUS, and it will take time for them to age-out. And then you have to have a case brought before them that can overturn Heller and McDonald. Not going to happen within my lifetime.

Doesn't mean I'm not a federalist. It just means I think the SCOTUS, and especially Scalia, got it wrong this time. If our Union persists long enough, I think Heller and McDonald will be viewed by history right up there with Dredd-Scot as huge errors by the Court.
