re: #1 Fairly Sure I’m Still Obdicut

This is why simply pointing smugly to Supreme Court decisions, a la Heller, is a bad idea, by the way.

Not sure who or what post you refer to as “smugly”, we certainly see each and every emotion in web comments where moderation is less than stellar. “Smugly” kinda sucks as in unhelpful. Of course very few advocates of any kind refrain from strongly citing high court decisions that are in their favor. In this instance the smug will be from the, ah, shall we say “least restrained” gun control advocates.

It’s interesting to note that was the second affirmation of the 2nd as an individual right, setting aside all that militia insistence. 1886 Presser Vs Illinois.
