Original Note:
The Bruen decision reaffirmed the Heller decision & says when the "plain text of the second amendment is implicated, the burden of proof shifts to the government". The government in this case failed to show a historical analogue law from the time of the founding (1791). https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/21pdf/20-843_7j80.pdf https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2023/11/21/maryland-gun-ruling-decision-bruen/
