NOTE - This is what AP is quoting from the dissent. I have a copy, but
I haven't read the entire thing yet... -- Begin AP quote: In dissent, Justice John Paul Stevens, joined by Souter, Ginsburg, and Breyer, wrote that the majority "would have us believe that over 200 years ago, the Framers made a choice to limit the tools available to elected officials wishing to regulate civilian uses of weapons." He further writes that such evidence "is nowhere to be found." -- End AP quote Even totally discounting the Second itself, apparently Justice Stevens hasn't heard of (particularly) Hamilton, Jefferson, et al...and shows no understanding of what "the Framers" thought with regard to the "Bill of Rights." This could be among the most stunning opinions ever issued...and if I were Obama, I'd keep my mouth absolutely shut unless it was to denounce the dissent from a purely legal standpoint. The Dems oughta get busy thanking some higher power that Stevens was a Ford appointment. Sheesh, R |
