How has the Supreme Court changed its stance on the meaning of the Second Amendment?

It ruled that concealed weapons required a license after initially saying there was no need for that law.
It once ruled that the rights of gun owners were unlimited and later reversed that ruling.
It reversed a ruling that the amendment only applies to weapons related to maintaining a militia.
It ruled that weapons could be obtained across state lines and then passed a law requiring background checks.

Answer: The Supreme Court ruled that the right to keep and bear arms is an "unincorporated" right, and only Congress was barred from restricting the Second Amendment, not states or individuals. Although states could restrict citizens' gun rights, they couldn't outlaw guns altogether.

Have a great day!!
