US v. Miller: The First Supreme Court Decision on the Second Amendment
In this video, we explore the 1939 US Supreme Court decision in US v. Miller, which was the Court's first substantive ruling on the Second Amendment.
The case involved Jack Miller and Frank Layton, two individuals with criminal histories, who never appeared in court to argue their side against the Federal government.
The decision ultimately ruled that the Second Amendment only protected firearms that were useful to a militia. Fast forward to today, where gun control groups argue the opposite - that the Second Amendment protects only non-military style firearms.
This contrast with modern Supreme Court Second Amendment jurisprudence, such as the landmark cases of Heller, McDonald, Caetano, and Bruen, makes US v. Miller a little-known but important decision in understanding the evolution of gun rights in America.
