but id you also see she said she wouldn’t rely or look to international law for dieas neither.. I guess she’s saying all the right things and then not saying anything on others.
Maybe if she flashed an active and paid up NRA membership card in her name. ;-)
Coburn vs. Sotomayor
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ynews/ynews_pl699
“Do I have a right to personal self-defense?” Coburn asked.
Sotomayor: “That’s an abstract question.”
Coburn: “That’s what the public wants to know. Yes or no? Do we have that right?”
The judge thought for a moment, then came up with an answer based on her experience as a New York City prosecutor: “If there’s a threat of serious injury you can use force. How imminent is the threat? If the threat is in this room and I go home get a gun and come back and shoot you, that may not be legal under New York law.”
Coburn: “What the American people want to see is what your gut says.”
Sotomayor said that’s not how judges decide cases.
