Wonder if this will give him some new perspective on that whole "The security...the right...the people...shall not be infringed" thingy?

Actually, IIRC, elected members of the House and Senate (I don't believe that the staff are included), can become deputized members of the Capital police department, and then qualify for CCW in Washington DC! It's nice to be the king, huh? To bad that the citizens, who actually have to live there, can't even buy a gun for self defense. Don't have to bother with the rules, like the complete ban on civilians to own handguns, let alone being able to carry one. It wouldn't suprise me if the members of the SCOTUS also had that little perk.

Here's the thing that doesn't add up. Isn't a Supreme Court Justice guarded 24/7? If they aren't they damn well ought to be.

I can't imagine them taking such a risk as to jog alone, especially given the heightened security climate in 2004.
