I know some Freeps don't like him, but Robert Bork's The Tempting of America: The Political Seduction of the Law" should be required reading.

Bork is a prime example of a judge who ignores what our Constitution really says, -- in favor of what a moral majority wants it to say..

Here's what Bork says about the Second Amendment--

"In a footnote on page 166, Judge Bork writes that ``the Supreme Court has consistently ruled that there is no individual right to own a firearm. The Second Amendment was designed to allow states to defend themselves against a possibly tyrannical national government. Now that the federal government has stealth bombers and nuclear weapons, it is hard to imagine what people would need to keep in the garage to serve that purpose."

Borking the Second Amendment</a?
