“Im anxious as to what the court will decide. I feel we should be allowed to own and carry whatever our soldiers and Marines carry.”
Yep. Not to mention airmen and sailors. Personally, I want my own A-10.

One of the earliest scholars of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, Justice Joseph Story, confirmed this focus on individuals in his famous "Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States" in 1833. "The right of the citizens to keep and bear arms," Story wrote, "has justly been considered, as the palladium of the liberties of republics, since it offers a strong moral check against the usurpation and arbitrary power of rulers . . ."Indeed.

The Supreme Court has agreed to take up a case that will affect millions of Americans and could also have an impact on the 2008 elections.What effect could taking a pro-D.C. gunban position have on Hillary's campaign? I think this could dwarf her illegal's licsensing position/non-position. I think her ship would be sunk.
