So, the Justice Dept. (Solicitor General) has an opinion. Whoop-de-doo. When the Supreme Court sees it the same way, and it begins dismissing gun control laws as unconstitutional, I'll take notice.
So, basically, the Justice Department is saying that they believe that the 2nd Ammendment protects the rights of individuals to keep and bear arms, but they really don't intend to do anything about it? This is what we are getting excited about?
Wouldn't the better way be to demonstrate that they believe this by overturning laws?
Words are cheap. They need to follow them with actions.
