From a quick look at this, it does appear that our Justice Department is indeed arguing in favor of gun control.
The good news is it does acknowledge that the Second Amendment is an individual right; the bad news is that it appears to go wholesale against the plain language of "shall not be infringed."

So in the same breath the gummint acknowledges the right then concludes it can take that right away. Curious.

DOJ is full of Klintonoid scum. No surprises there.
The last DOJ pettifogger I spoke with was bragging about attending a Sharpton rally.

Their argument goes further than gun control. They basically argue that the government can do ANYTHING if there is a good enough reason for it.

How did he get his job? And, who is his boss?
Yes, it is Bush's fault.
