102. U.S. vs Emerson, 5th Circuit (2001), S. Ct. (cert, denied) |
|
A recent and coherent explanation of the 2nd Amendment and the US v. Miller, 59 S.Ct. 816 (1939) decision most frequently cited by gun-control group. In Emerson, the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals found that the 2nd Amendment confers an individual right to own a firearm, and the US Supreme Court declined certiorari.
