So much for me liking her. Has anybody told this dimwit about a thing called the "US Constitution" or the "Bill of Rights"? No state has the legal or moral authority to restrict the rights RECOGONIZED AND GUARANTEED by the US Constitution.

The biggest thing I need to know here is if the lawyers for the gun rights side argued the 2nd amendment in their brief. If they didn't, then the judge probably can't use that in the ruling.

Look at post 176 and read the link there. I do like how she referenced Blackstone, Kopel, and Don Kates, and also alluded to government sanctioned murder. It also seems that the gun makers didn't try and fight it on 2nd amendment grounds, but only on 'equal protection', and Brown ruled on that.

I haven't decided on where I stood on this yet. I still need to do more research.

I think we all need to hear more,but she seems to have a disturbing tendency to lean towards government authority and power over freedom. As anybody who has read my posts on FR knows,I am a STRONG supporter of states rights,but NOT when these alleged "rights" trumps the US Constitution. When in doubt,err towards the side of freedom!
