The Supreme Court's decision in Heller is quite clearly correct. The opinion was generally very good, except for the parts that identified restrictions on handgun use and ownership that would be constitutional. These hypothetical restrictions were not before the Court in this case, and the Justices should not have commented on them.
The dissents, on the other hand, were almost painful to read. Particularly egregious is Justice Stevens' admonition: "[the decision] will surely give rise to a far more active judicial role in making vitally important national policy decisions than was envisioned at any time in the 18th, 19th, or 20th centuries." Pot calling the kettle black?
Excellent analysis.
I really find it hillarious that the gun grabbers are going to try to argue that the second amendment "right of the people" should not apply to the state and local governments while the first amendment "Congress shall make no law" does!
Justice Black had it right several decades ago!
Stevens complaining about an activist judiciary? lol
