The ruling was on the handguns ban in DC.

None of you pro-handgun folks must live where there is no urban violence.

Nobody wants to take your shotguns from you. The issue was handguns.

And no, handguns were not around at the time of the founders.
There were hand guns that operated off flint just like the rifles. The reason there is less violence in other countries is because the punishments are more severe and there are fewer appeals tying up their court systems.
