Today is the day.
The folks at SCOTUS blog will be providing a live blog to follow developments as quickly as possible.
I dunno, but if he was in my middle school I probably would have taken his lunch money!
Liberals like to have guns and bodyguards, they just don’t think the little people need them.
With each passing day, I see more irrational and absurd behavior than the day before.
Sixty years ago, who would have guessed that the SCOTUS would decide whether or not an American has the right to self-defense with a firearm.
Americans then would laugh the democrats right out of the room for proposing such Stalinist madness.
How very far we have fallen as a society.
>>My prediction: 7-2 against DC.
But if it goes the other way, the march to Washington will be like no other.
I may go on that one.
If the decision doesn’t go the right way look for thousands of white, disgruntled gun-toting rednecks to take to the streets.
Riiiiight, like that’s going to happen. The expression, “Fart in a windstorm” comes to mind.
You said a mouthful!
I believe your right
I believe your right
Sorry guys. After the Guantanamo and Child Rapist decisions, I don’t have much confidence that a small thing like the 2nd Amendment will carry much weight with this court. I think gun owners lose this one.
I’ll be pleased to be wrong on that.
I’m afraid half a baby is about the BEST we can hope for from the “Gang of Nine”
Hopefully they will punt, and not write anything the grabbers can hang new laws on.
I don’t even HOPE for a good outcome here. Don’t trust any of them, not after some of the recent rulings like Kelo.
If they say anything specific it becomes a how-to manual for the grabbers. “Here’s the way you can take their guns...”
The old way is better. RKBA shall not be infringed. Shall not even be questioned, under PA law.
No sense pinging this thread, people have waited almost 70 years for this decision; we weren’t waiting near that long for Hillary’s concession and what did we get? Trampled in the crowd! Site went down and a historic thread was blighted in the bud. *sigh*
I’ll know how it went by the fireworks in this lovely valley in PA. Folks here love a good loud bang, even without cause.
>> ... FR doesn’t start crapping out like it did yesterday.
>>> Well, if we all stay off it won’t bog down.
Heh. The site will go down like an overloaded ferry in a typhoon.

Nothing less than the future of the Republic will be decided this morning.
Excellent point. Maybe we should take up a collection to add servers... or we can just keep bitching when we can't get onto the site!
I'll put $50 into the kitty, today. Will anybody match it?
Special fundraiser, Jim. Give us a place to put it!
The rebellion may be from within D.C. rather than from without. The people who live in the city are sick and tired of being fodder for any illegally armed criminal. They want the right to protect their property and their lives just like the rest of us have the right to do.
Outsiders won't sway the council, but insiders who vote for them will. If SCOTUS upholds the gun ban, there should be marching in the streets and a message sent loud and clear to the council.
Amazing...how we are all waiting on 9 people to tell us how to live our lives.
I see 5-3 against DC
