Supreme Court Case & Gun Control ?
Have you seen this? http://news.yahoo.com/s/csm/20080318/ts_csm/aguns
It literally makes me sick to my stomach with the thought of our freedoms being so easily eroded by those who are liberal.
The issue isn't really whether you beleive in gun control or not it's about the freedoms are country were based upon being taken away! The founding fathers understood the need for citzens to have the right to bear arms.....
edit: wendy - I don't sleep with a gun under my pillow, don't even own one presently but I reserve the right to! My family does and I know many people who hunt, clay shoot and do shooting sports in 4-H who would be affected. You are of course entitled to your opinion but may I suggest that expecting the govt to legislate everything is just a cop out?

I am optimistic about the decision that will be handed down, Justice Thomas has been asking for a good 2nd ammendment case to make it to the Court and there are some good level headed Judges currently on the bench. I suspect, hope, pray that they will issue a ruling supporting the only obvious interpretation of the 2nd ammendment, that being that the "People mentioned in the 2nd ammendment is means exactly the same thing as the "People" mentioned in the 1st, 4th, 5th etc... ammendments.
Hey Wind, those who beat their swords into plowshares will plow for those who didn't. Just remember that when Big Brother comes knocking at your door.

Look up Heller, which was only last year I believe, and the most direct confrontation the Court has ever had. There was another case called Miller that dealt indirectly with the 2nd Amendment.

Did they mean assault weapons?
And did they mean for every low life scum bag in the country to be able to get their hands on one because you people that need to sleep with a gun under your pillow do not know how to control the manufacture and over see the placement of these weapons?
Huh?
You had your chance.
You cannot control the guns...now it is up to big brother.
Rights my ***. Right to die you mean.
