OK Guys (and Gals):

I used to think I was reasonably bright and I like legal issues, although I am far from being a lawyer.

The Emerson case is enough to make my head spin. Can a pro-2A lawyer just tell me should I root for the Supremes to take the case or should I root against this? Not that I have much say in the matter anyway, but I would surely like to know which side is the good guys.

Are there any other 2A cases which could reasonably come before the Supreme Court during Bush's first term? Are any of them better for us than Emerson? If we wait, could Bush get another conservative Justice and a 2A case, or is this likely to be our best shot?

Thanks,

CurlyDave

All you need to know about the Emerson case is that the Second Ammendment Foundation thinks enough of it to bankroll it all the way to the Supreme Court of the United States of America.

Go to SAF.org and check it out for yourself if you have a good hour. They have everything linked that you could want to read, even Emerson's signed BATF form when he bought the Beretta that eventually led to his legal troubles.
