I wrote snail-mail letters to both Bush and Clement.

The justification in the brief for a lower level of scrutiny is extremely weak. It basically just ignores the Second Amendment. I hope that my request that they withdraw this brief doesn't result in them submitting a stronger one.

The only justification for suggesting that "reasonable regulation" isn't an infringement was one early court decision which permitted a ban on concealed carry. One judge's decision is hardly sufficient to outweigh the Founder's intentions to bar infringements.

I recommend that everybody communicate their dissatisfaction with this brief.

Our Supreme Court Justices have looked to foreign laws in order to interpret our Constitution. I have no faith in them including Roberts.
