did SCOTUS give any clear guidelines at all abotu scrutiny in the McDonald decision? I could not find any real reference to the word "scrutiny" in the ruling.

The next case that goes to the Court will probably be something that demands a judgment about scrutiny, since it will challenge exactly what a "reasonable restriction" is in some way. My guess is that it will be the "Heller II" case about DC's post-Heller restrictions on handgun purchase and ownership. But that's hard to say, still.
While true it is only part of the story. Government is very good at misrepresenting the actual intent of laws, and courts have almost always accepted what government entitites claim about them.ArmedBear,

there is no fundamental right to smoke Marijuana and thus not subject to strict scrutiny analysis
my constitutional law professor told me so
