A Trump judge orders Illinois to allow firearms on public transportation, because Illinois could not show a historical tradition of prohibiting firearms on subways, which entered widespread use in the late nineteenth century (via Mike Sacks). storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

So as to not bury the lede, the Court finds that Defendants have failed to meet
their burden. That failure is dispositive. Still, mindful of the Seventh Circuitā€™s directive to develop a full record in the trial court, the Court will address the partiesā€™
many arguments relating to historical analogues and other possible approaches to
analyze the constitutionality of the Firearm Concealed Carry Actā€™s prohibition
against carrying concealed firearms on public transportation.

perhaps the DoJ could order that Judge Johnston's courtroom - and only his courtroom - become a permitless concealed and/or open carry zone as well as removing any Second Amendment-violating magnetometers what's good enough for Joe Public should be good enough for Iain Johnston

Gun carry goes up a notch. Meanwhile in Canada, we're still happy at Zero.

The Supreme Court is essentially giving judges who want to make biased decisions a series of unlock codes to reject almost anything for dumb semantic reasons. By the ā€œlogicā€ on display here, our entire legal system needs to be more specific and updated yearly with more detail.

But we've had guns on our public transportation for years - we share the Metro with Missouri.

Was there a historical tradition of not allowing machine guns, tanks, cannons, bikes(these are definitely illegal) prostitues, cocaine..etc

I believe the historical tradition in regulating nuclear and chemical weapons does not extend back to the 18th century either. Presumably, limiting access to WMDs are unconstitutional.
