So all DC has to do is not issue licenses? I was reading another article that the ruling did not strike down license requirements, laws on felons and the mentally retarded...

Why in the world would you post a link to your own blog site containing nothing more than the text you posted on FR?

Is it extreme vanity, silliness, or cognitive impairment?

I was truely worried about this going the wrong way, after seeing some of the recent decisions.

Bravo, they got it right.

A freedom medal for Mr. Robert Levy and a hearty thank you on behalf of my relatives who gave their lives on April 19, 1775 so we could all enjoy that right.

Thank you Mr. Levy

You're a true American patriot in my book.

Someone needs to challenge the Sullivan Act and the other crap like Chicago’s ban.

Even the requirement to have a CCH to carry concealed is crap IMO.

The SC: freeing terrorists but at least leaving the 2nd Amendment intact so we can defend ourselves.

I agree; thank God.

“liberal dogma of the past 30 years, where penumbras carried more weight than words”

Truer words never spoken.

Even though today’s ruling turned out the way we wanted, I confess to a great deal of unease over waiting to hear what my rights are from a black robed oligarchy.

Yesterday’s ruling on child rapists proves my point.

I had serious doubts about the outcome. So glad to see I was wrong. A stronger majority would have been nice. But hey I’ll take this.

A link to the 157 page “Slip” (preliminary text) Opinion is at:
http://www.scotusblog.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/07-290.pdf
The first 67 pages are Scalia and are a masterful and complete analysis of the issue.

The reason to link is that I will be updating the analysis as I go through the opinion.

From your comment, it appears you may not value that much.

OK by me.
