“Dangerous and Unusual” Weapons?

Dear MSSA Friends,

Just for your interest, I’ve been working on an analysis that may interest you.

In U.S. v. Heller, the Supreme Court said that the Second Amendment does not extend to protect possession of “dangerous and unusual” weapons. So, what does “dangerous and unusual” mean?

Wayne Fincher formed the Washington County (Arkansas) Militia, and was busted by the feds for having machine guns. For ten years the WCM held musters, informed the sheriff and governor. Nobody was concerned until the feds dropped in. Now Fincher is appealing his federal conviction for possessing unregistered machine guns to the Supreme Court.

So, how does the “dangerous and unusual” weapons as mentioned in Heller apply to U.S. v. Fincher?
