Now is the time to move on recouping our Constitution with a pro-USC SCOTUS.
This Ping List is for all things pertaining to the 2nd Amendment.

We need a couple of more seats on SCOTUS, but that +itch Bader-Ginsburg will go on life-support before she leaves and Kennedy will be taking Alzheimer’s medication before HE goes. Breyer is probably fossilized into his seat up there, so he is going nowhere.
At some point the DC government needs to stop wasting money and ignoring our rights. Congress can and should step in and say (1) no more federal money spent on this and (2) better yet, say that DC shall accept any other state’s CCW since it is a federal district. Time for congress to step in.
Rather than waiting for the occasional perfect & well-funded case to arise and slowly writhe thru the system (usually to be slapped down by maliciousness like in DC), methinks we should have a DIY guidebook for anyone & everyone wanting to preserve their rights without requiring interesting connections or deep pockets. There shouldn’t be 1 bi-annual case begging DC once again to adhere to already-rendered & flatly-ignored verdicts, there should be 1000 plaintiffs individually filing suit at a cost little exceeding pocket change. Likewise, rather than waiting >30 years for 922(o) to be challenged, there should be 10,000 annual plaintiffs demanding their right to standard militia arms; there should be 100,000 cases filed insisting “shall not be infringed” means what it says re: ownership & carry of mundane arms (standard semi-auto pistols & rifles). Rather than risking it all on one case (subject to unexpectedly bad plaintiff, flawed case, or biased judge), accept the odds of failing by multiple cases in differing jurisdictions with a range of plaintiffs, forcing conflicts of verdicts and driving the issue to SCOTUS - and there the justices seeing that it’s not just 0.0000001% of citizens wanting right, but a vast cross-section of law-abiding citizens demanding their rights.
DC needs to be incorporated back to Virginia and Maryland. DC is figuratively and literally a stinking Anti-American Swamp. Also it needs to be renamed The Swamp. Washington is dishonored being named of a government that is a 1000x more treacherous and treasonous than King George and England.
I wish someone would legally smack down NY state and NYC, basically putting our communist mayor and governor on notice that “shall not be infringed” means exactly that. I have the right to bear arms endowed to me by my Creator. That Natural Right is absolute, and no man may deny me that Natural Right out of hand.
