At this point in the post-trial necropsy..

Post #378,095 by Ashton 7/15/13 4:03:14 PM Reply	At this point in the post-trial necropsy.. does anyone care to estimate the odds of the 'Stand Your Ground' ""law"" being bumped to the USSC--soon?--a bit later?? (Whereby we may get to plumb the depths of where the Gang-of-Five really stand? on a variety of visceral issues/outrages --and maybe many other aspects of this isolated \| simultaneously sanctimonious and crass, quarrelsome quintet.) Law above fear, justice above law, mercy above justice, love above all. HAH!! . . . in. your. dreams.

The majority on this court doesn't understand that an injudicious placement of an ellipsis can obliterate meaning (as in "... the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed"). Particularly when no heed is paid to stare decisis. See, "Private Ownership of Firearms" is a new "right" this crowd of toddlers invented. And in so doing they said "States can regulate, but not deny [SIC] private firearm ownership rights." So, imnsho, this group of short-bus justices would decide that the "Stand Your Ground" law is a State matter.

(When Sandra Day O'C retired, to take care of her very-ailing husband {laudatory, of course} ... and then he died very shortly thereafter: I thought-out-loud: Let. no. good. deed. go. unPunished.) We are the Punished. Until one or more of these suckers crashes his Mercedes. Law above fear, justice above law, mercy above justice, love above all.

That would have been tossed on an appeal Any opinions expressed by me are mine alone, posted from my home computer, on my own time as a free American and do not reflect the opinions of any person or company that I have had professional relations with in the past 58 years. meep
Post #378,135 by mmoffitt 7/16/13 9:56:53 AM Reply	Miller doesn't hold anymore. In our Brave New World, whether or not the firearm in question "has some reasonable relationship" to the regulation of a State militia is irrelevant. Hell, we may as well adopt the NRA's version of Amendment Two and start it off, as they do, with an ellipsis.
