Isn't rational basis off the table for all fundamental enumerated rights according to Heller? I assume they are talking about the equal protection claim, or is equal protection of the law somehow not a fundamental right?
I believe the court is taking the view that since a gun show is not a core part of the fundamental right of possessing a firearm for self-defense, it may be regulated under rational basis scrutiny.
