At this point the Supreme Court of the United States has not yet taken up the issue of the conflicts among circuits. The time has come for it to do so but the question is will they do it?

Stay well - Stay safe - Stay armed - Yorktown

In their decision the Ninth Circus stated on page 33, "Historical research shows that the use of the term 'bear arms' generally referred to the carrying of arms in military service -- not the private use of arms for personal purposes."

I'm glad they are arguing that our military should be armed.... I'd hate to have an unarmed military...

I'm no jurist expert, but you would think that this is exactly what the USSC is for - to settle conflicting rulings of the federal circuit courts.

Tough situation.
The USSC could tell the 9th that they must review this before the full court (with a heavy armtwist of "we don't want this one").

BTW, did you hear Rush read Reinhardt's venom-filled, gun hating diatribe of an opinion?
Equated gun owners with McVeigh, mobs of armed racists and religious bigots.

It's much later than we think! The Bill of Rights was DEMANDED by the Anti-Federalists, the folks led by Patrick Henry that(rightfully) didn't trust the federal govt. Our Constitution limits the power of govt, it does not limit the rights of Citizens. Things are going to get very interesting before this is resolved!
