    Then demonstrate some measuring of the aforementioned virtue, by acknowledging how the united state supreme court itself stated that denial or certiorari does not equate to them agreeing with the ruling of the lower courts.

    The lack of an actual, legitimate response to the point raised has been noted.

    where? make a good argument
    your schtick is to fluff the anti gunners by condemning those who take the second amendment seriously, hoping they won't want to ban what you own if you sell other gun owners down the river.

    SCOTUS by a vote of 7 to 2 has decided that the States have the authority to regulate what guns the People can own, short of banning whole classes of firearms.

    Produce the specific part of the Heller decision that confirms your assertion the is legally binding or sets precedent along the lines you keep attributing to Heller. You can’t. The Heller case had a very narrow scope; it was not a broad review of the interpretation of the second amendment. It’s obvious you are trying to re-interpret what the Heller case was about and the scope of the majority decision. Snake oil.

    Not only only can you not substantiate your assertion, it’s obvious you don’t understand a how to read a decision and don’t understand that dictum, comments unnecessary to the case before the court made by a justice, is not legally binding nor does it set precedent as you are trying to assert. Nor does the court not accepting a case have any meaning beyond, in this case, wishful thinking on your part; there are many reasons a case is denied and it’s SOP no reason is given by the court for a denial; any interpretation of a denial is totally without merit since you can’t possibly know. Any speculation can be countered with logic that anthetical to any narrative you push; I can think of three off the top of my head. So, keep peddling the snake oil fabricated from your self delusion; that’s all it is... there are useful idiot marks might buy a bottle, but no one here will.

    Quite contradictory,

    first, reference to Pro Gun people as hard core and as nutters gives doubts as to your own integrity and truthfulness, as you yourself said:

    "I'm an avid gun owner and shooter, but the nutters give us a bad name and I try to correct that."

    Are you a U.S. resident ?
    It would not seem so.

    "My purpose is to correct the misconceptions the hard core nutters have regarding US law, specifically surrounding firearms.

    then perhaps the anti gun side should consider adopting it?

    A commonly presented statement is that after world war three, only cockroaches will remain to rule the planet, as the resulting radiation will not affect them.

    Whether or not the claim is factually correct is not known. If such is indeed the case, however, the argument could be made that hunting cockroaches with flamethrowers would only spur them on to evolve flame-resistant capabilities all the faster.

    Best thing I ever saw was a huge ugly spider in my room, and I doused it with lighter fluid and lit it, the spider exploded and multi colour gobbety gook got on everything.

    Nope, some sort of Tarantula, and I can't stand them, I hated Them since age 5 or less.
    They abound in many other Countries.
    Mostly harmless.

    The indigenous folk I stayed with along the Orinoco in the early 80’s delighted in hunting for them. They’d heat stones and use two stick as tongs to fry them on the stones, making a sort of hors d'oeuvre. They seemed to enjoy them. I tried it, but wasn’t impressed. An acquired taste I guess.

    No, my schtick is to call out the crazy morons who give us regular gin owners a bad name. And correct a lot of their misconceptions.
