DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA – The United States Supreme Court declined on Monday to review a lower court’s ruling refusing to strike down on Second Amendment grounds Connecticut’s ban on certain semi-automatic firearms including the most popular rifles in the Nation.

>God help America. We need an Anton Scalia more than ever.
F* the SCOTUS; they’re 1/3 of why we’re in the mess we are today.
What we *NEED* are Citizens sick-n-tired of GOVT, reaching into their lives, their wallets and thinking they have any authority to tell them how to live, what to eat, what to read, etc.
“...shall NOT be infringed.” So easy, even a lawyer should be able to comprehend.
IQ of only 143 here. Definitely not 'genius'.
I agree. My Congressman Himes and Senator Blumenthal should be vulnerable because they foolishly (and/or cravenly) - supported our Iran deal.
I need to learn just “who” are the patriots who are opposing those morons...
After a certain IQ level, it is the CSQ that is a more accurate determiner of a person’s ability to function.

Wouldn’t have helped to take the case right now. 4-4 split.
You didn’t hear? He was chainsawed by an anti-gun activist!
If he had been in better health, he might have survived the chainsaw attack.
That’s why the 2016 election is so important.
*Turn on the floor cameras. NOW*
It is a Supreme Court justice, one who was very inflential in a divided court. Even if someone watched keel over from an obvious heart attack, You do an autopsy. It is not the family’s call.
OH MY GOD, DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS???? THE FAMILY WAS IN ON IT!
As a post script, says who? Where did you get that information from?
From me. I got the information from me. What, I have to cite an authority to make a point. If you are okay without an autopsy being conducted that’s your opinion. I did not ask you says who. Absurd.
The Democrat’s rule here! We cannot possibly beat out the cities with the gimethats!
Shite.
