I don't see your contention.

Just pointing out that tpaine's statement doesn't mean he's not familiar with the Barron decision. That's all.

In the context of the post, it indicates otherwise. Of course that was his intent; to bait me on gun control.

Sort of like my saying there was once slavery in the US and when asked for proof provide copies of slave ownership documents AND THEM BEING ACCUSED OF BEING SYMPATHETIC TO RESORING SLAVERY IN THE US.

Of course not. What it means is that he wanted me to think he was not familiar with it.

I keep asking. Is it your contention that the 2nd is NOT part of the BOR's?

Perhaps earlier 'familiarity' instead of 'denial' was used. Too much flaming for me to look at it all.

Thanks, "Owen" is holding the line rather well I think.

It's a shame that Bork is always misquoted when the Ninth is discussed.
He said it is no better than an "ink blot" as to what the unenumerated rights were- not that the Ninth is no better than an ink blot.
Until Snopes debunks it as an urban legend I guess he'll always be misunderstood.
