The Supreme Court is not supposed to decide things based on the headlines, but based on the Constitution. (If you want to argue that the Supreme Court decided wrongly, go for it, but that wasn't what you complained about.)

Look, gun violence is a real problem - I'm with you there. But if you want to limit guns, find ways to do it that are within the bounds of the Constitution. You don't just get to ignore the Constitution because you think fighting gun violence is important. (Or, change the Constitution. That's an option too.)

I'm hoping that the new federal legislation (with bipartisan support) will think carefully about Constitutional limits, and will find ways to be within bounds and still limit gun access.
