I didn’t see any info saying that it would be announced tomorrow, but I won’t knit pick.

Predictions?

6-3 or 7-2 in favor of an individual right.

I don’t see how the court could honestly, given all the other writings of the founders at that time, their personal notes, the letters they wrote, their speeches at various meetings and conventions, there’s a huge amount of material supporting the individual right position.

Self government.
Remember that one?

Ah there's the rub. Honestly. I don't think they decide much of anything honestly. Ideology reigns supreme, and not the ideology embodied in that old rag that they are supposed to be enforcing.
