I was thinking that too, except I wonder if that analysis changed,
given SCOTUS's 2022 Bruen case and its emphasis on not having the 2nd
Amendment treated as possessing second-class citizen rights. I also
think that 'the people' includes blind people and that rational basis
review would not apply, since strict scrutiny was held to be the wrong
analysis for the right to keep and bare arms.
But there could be a weak argument against saying that this was not
intended by its text and history, with which i would disagree.
Just my thoughts.
