Anyway you slice it, I am happy to see it go forward.

Same here, I think it's time to finally get a ruling on this. Just reading up on some of the late 18th and early 19th century political thought it was obvious they believed in the individual right of the 2nd Amendment. The militia part was intended as a complementary clause and not a prerequisite to firearm ownership. For the justices to rule otherwise and against plain English would mean they view the Constitution as a living document.

I just got a notice from the Brady Bunch (very anti 2A bunch, led by Sarah Brady. They are begging for at least $50,000 in quick donations so that they can file a Amicus Curare brief against the 2A being a personal right.

Everyone here should inundate them with letters, emails, phone calls, and faxes, asking them to STFU--(in nice, polite language, of course).
