Quote:He's only had 2 gun cases: 

 

NRA vs. Reno, which involves the amount of time the FBI takes to destroy gun transfer records after clearing NICS under the Brady bill.  Garland agreed with the FBI that 6 months was enough time.  The NRA wanted wanted them destroyed instantly, and his decision put him on their enemies list.

 

Parker vs. D.C. (which later became Heller vs. D.C.), in which he requested a re-hearing.  He wasn't requesting an overturn, just a re-hearing.

 

Slate article

 

Maybe he's a second amendment fan, maybe he isn't but you can't tell by his record.
A decision was made and they got Heller right.  A re-hearing opens the door for a more restrictive outcome.  'Nuff said.
Kaishakunin for hire.
