A state argues the Second Amendment restricts only Congress, not states. Which case most directly rejects this?
A
McDonald v. Chicago held the Second Amendment right is incorporated against the states through the Fourteenth Amendment, limiting state and local gun bans.
B
D.C. v. Heller held the Second Amendment applies only to state governments and not to the federal government or federal enclaves.
C
United States v. Lopez held the Second Amendment is incorporated through the Commerce Clause, so states may regulate guns only with federal approval.
D
McDonald held incorporation is impossible for any Bill of Rights provision, leaving gun rights exclusively to state constitutional law.
E
Heller held incorporation occurs automatically through the Tenth Amendment, so no Fourteenth Amendment analysis is needed for state gun regulations.
