This is a hoot! The have three time filling pools going on. 65% of the readers today are neither lawyers or law students. 95% of us are there to follow Heller, and 62% of us own more than 2 firearms.

It's a nice feeling to be among friends.

Congratulations! Now that we know the size of the opposition, we will need to find a place to bury them.

I like the way you think : )

>>>>>That was the Solicitor General. He resigned to go back to Georgetown, where he was a senior fellow before joining the administration.

As you can see, I’m not exactly tuned-in to the DC legal scene.

Thanks for the clarification.

I’m worried because DC isn’t a state. Doesn’t it say “no STATE” shall restrict..?

Been logged on since 9 am!

Although all of us are supremely (pun intended) concerned with the Heller decision, the other two cases also look to be very interesting.

The DC and Chicago mayors wont be seeing any kind of victory today. Both of those bans will end today.

I however don’t expect a ruling that ends all restrictions on everything.

very disturbing indeed, but light on gun-facts.

Dig that tag line! Up over $100.00 for a month or so now to fill up the Expedition. Gotta have the “tank-like” features though.

So far the court has been a major disappointment. Will this be the biggest? Conservatives are taking it in the shorts this year big time.

2 guns? I have two guns in each vehicle! Which reminds me. It is time to clean and practice with them. I think I might go kill me some clay pigeons after the ruling.

I was just running my Dillon, cranking out.45 ammo, in honor of this moment. Later in the day I’ll be going to visit the gravesite of Eugene Stoner.

I don’t think Obama’s going to end up winning, but I do share your sentiments.

The problem is twofold - public education, and demographics not working in our favor.

Welfare moms and immigrants on the public tit seem to be outbreeding red-blooded Americans even with the more religious/family oriented standpoint of conservatives.
