It should leave no doubt in one's mind why folks like Schumer are attempting to obstruct the appointment of judges to the Federal level. He holds the same view of people that the judges in the majority decision do-mainly, that Americans are serfs, and that average person's 'rights' are only those which their betters suffer them to exercise.

We should also remember that these self-same federal judges pushed for HR 1752 in the 106th Congress, which "preempts state firearm laws by permitting Justice officers of the United States to carry a firearm without a state permit".

So, all 800-odd active federal judges are members of an American elite class who can carry wherever they feel like, but us peasants can't protect ourselves.

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people 800 federal judges to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

I'd love to see a Congressman attach a rider to a bill this session that would lift the exemption of federal judges that vote against an individual right. It probably wouldn't fly under equal protection grounds, but the furor over the provision alone would be helpful for pointing out the hypocracies of the left in the debate.
