Prior to 2010 the Second Amendment applied only to the Federal government, not the states and local jurisdictions, who were at liberty to regulate firearms as they saw fit.
The mistake was to incorporate the Second Amendment to the states, contrary to the original intent of the Framers.
Almost all the other amendments have been incorporated, why would the 2nd be any different?
It's a right I have as a US Citizen and can't be taken away just because I am a Citizen of New York.
Although they repeatedly try.
