8-1 with Thomas the dissent.
“The court and government do not point to a single historical law revoking a citizen’s Second Amendment right based on possible interpersonal violence,” Thomas wrote. “Yet, in the interest of ensuring the Government can regulate one subset of society, today’s decision puts at risk the Second Amendment rights of many more.”

I'm surprised Alito went with the majority on this one. And a little surprised Kavanaugh did too. I'm also surprised it was an 8-1 ruling.
I'm not at all surprised Thomas was in the minority.
I read Alito was absent again today as well with no reason given. Maybe in his twisted brain if he isn't present it's like he never ruled that way?
If his brain started dribbling out his ears, or something similarly odd and mostly fatal…would they give a reason?
Or should I not get my hopes up?
With any luck, he went to visit Scalia.
