He's been saying that the second amendment is about hunters for years

One thing that I found startling, after reading the entire decision -- all 75 pages of it, every single word -- is that the contemporaneous documents and words make it obvioust that the Second Amendment IS "about hunting" -- partially (and only partially).

The information included in the decision makes it quite clear that the founders did intent to protect a right to hunt, in addition to the primary rights (defense) protected by the Second.

The animal rights creeps must be having conniptions over this.

The right of Englishman to hunt existed for centuries, only recently trashed by the current fools in Parliament. I think it's in the Magna Carta, but I don't remember the exact source. I'm sure that it's part of the English Common Law, which our constitution adopted. I think NRA has some briefs about that on their site.

Personally, I like the way Ted Nugent deals with animal rights weenies - whenever one of them starts whining at him, he goes out and kills a deer in thier name.
