WASHINGTON—The Supreme Court ruled for the first time that gun possession is fundamental to American freedom, giving federal judges power to strike down state and local weapons laws for infringing on Second Amendment rights.
The ruling was 5-4 along the court's usual conservative-liberal split. Justice Samuel Alito wrote the majority opinion.

Well, the Court actually made the correct choice for once.

"Unless we turn back the clock or adopt a special incorporation test applicable only to the Second Amendment," gun rights must be recognized everywhere, Justice Alito wrote.
The 14th Amendment's framers, he wrote, wanted to ensure blacks in the South could protect themselves from white supremacists.
Is that so? The WSJ didn't elaborate on how Alito came to that conclusion. I'll have to look it up for myself.
