Miller wasn't really based on very much at all, really. It's an odd ruling with very little to go on. They didn't have to really justify it much since it wasn't really argued as Miller's side didn't submit briefs and Miller himself was dead before it got to the Supreme Court. It was really a worst case scenario and the political pressure by King FDR was largely responsible for it going the way it did. The NFA should never have stood.
