The Supremes are gona uphold the Lower Courts decision.

The 2nd does infer that the INDIVIDUAL has the right to bear arms.

In the old days the Militia was an ad hoc group that was there to defend their town, village etc. from the depredations of the Indians, French, Bandits and other nefarious dudes. If the people who lived there didn't do it nobody would or could. The Brits marched on Lexington and Concord to TAKE AWAY the the guns and ammunition of the local populace hereafter known as the militia.

The National Guard of today is in reality an arm of the Federal Government. How many tours in Iraq have they done again???

Twenty years ago it was heresy to say that guns in the hands of the people is what protects our freedoms. Today it is closer to reality than many would like to believe. That is an unfortunate state of affairs.

NOW here is the THOUGHT for the day. As Gun Control has spread through the land so has the diminution of peoples freedoms. Look at the ban on smoking, trans fats, the PC climate, the excesses of the Patriot Act etc. It is all done in the name of the common good, forcing everyone to fit into the common mold of compliance or risk being labeled a criminal.

I'm sorry folks but the common good DOES NOT recognize whats good for TABS. Ultimately only Tabs knows what is good for Tabs.
