Today was the deadline for amicus briefs supporting Heller in the DC gun ban case. SCOTUSBlog has them all online right here for your viewing pleasure.
In between hanging up on non-stop robo-calls from Presidential candidates telling me to go vote for them tomorrow, I’ve been reading these all day. There’s so many great arguments in them, I’m not really sure where to start (or stop..) quoting. As such, everyone should just go read them all.
Considering the extensive legal and historical smackdown delivered by these, and the weight of 31 States, over half of Congress, and the Vice President on top, I’m beginning to feel confident that we’ll win this 7-2 or better. DC’s position just downright absurd in the face of all the evidence. If the Court somehow rules in DC’s favor, they might as well just throw the entire Constitution out of the window along side their credibility..
