Question

Explain why states were not obligated to follow the provisions of the Second Amendment until 2010, even though they had to follow the provisions of the First Amendment.

Answer 1

Answer:

The Second Amendment, often referred to as the right to bear arms, is one of 10 amendments that form the Bill of Rights, ratified in 1791 by the U.S. Congress. Differing interpretations of the amendment have fueled a long-running debate over gun control legislation and the rights of individual citizens to buy, own and carry firearms.
