The Remarkable Truth of US v. Miller (1/2): A Manipulated Case for Gun Control
Today's show is Part 1 of 2 of our reading of the law review article "The Peculiar Story of United States v. Miller," buy attorney and legal scholar Brian L. Frye.
In 1939, the US Supreme Court handed down a landmark decision in US v. Miller, shaping the interpretation of the Second Amendment.
This case ruled that the Amendment only protected firearms useful to a militia, sparking debates that continue to this day. Ironically enough, contemporary gun control groups argue the opposite viewpoint, claiming that the Second Amendment only safeguards weapons that are not designed for war.
Interestingly, the defendants in US v. Miller, Jack Miller and Frank Layton, never presented their arguments in court, leaving many questions unanswered.
Despite the lack of opposition, this case is significant as the Supreme Court's first substantial ruling on the Second Amendment.
It sheds light on the historical context surrounding gun control and highlights the potential manipulation behind the scenes.
In fact, US v. Miller may have been orchestrated as a test case by supporters of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, aiming to pass gun control legislation without constitutional hindrances.
This possibility is well-described in the law review article, "The Peculiar Story of United States v. Miller," buy attorney and legal scholar Brian L. Frye, and published in the New York University Journal of Law & Liberty in 2008 -- ironically enough, the same year in which the Supreme Court decided their second substantive Second Amendment case, District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570 (US Supreme Court 2008).
Understanding the nuances of this case is essential in comprehending the ongoing debate over gun rights in America. Dive into the untold story of US v. Miller and uncover the complexities surrounding this pivotal moment in legal history.
