In PLANNED PARENTHOOD v. CASEY 112 S.Ct. 2791 (1992) (P. 2805)
the US Supreme Court declares that:
"...by the express provisions of the first eight amendments to the Constitution"
rights were "guaranteed to THE INDIVIDUAL... It is a promise of the Constitution
that there is a realm of personal liberty which the government may not enter." [emphasis added]
The 2nd Amendment is within "the first eight amendments".
If you like sequoias because they contain every vowel except y, chai, then I bet you must use the word "abstemiously" frequently, because it contains every vowel, including y, IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER.
THE BEST PREDICTOR OF FUTURE BEHAVIOR IS PAST BEHAVIOR

Here are my new earth shoes.....I am going to call them Eartha, after Eartha Kit.
I find myself avoiding this thread because I don't want to feel pressured to post every time I want to read.
I guess I'll just have to make several posts in order to make up for my previous reading.
I'm looking forward to the hockey game tonight.
I'm considering buying tickets to the game the next time the Hawks are in town, but they are over $600. But I have always wanted to see a Stanley cup game. It's on my bucket list...I guess I have to right?
Dave, when is the SCOTUS going to come back with their decision on the Chicago gun ban?
@ossobuco,
"A Private Eye" on Bayview, I think.
But that was, in all honesty, a few years ago.

@ehBeth,
And it's been yonks since I drove past there.
I can't believe I just read this whole thread. Sheesh.
I mean, I could have gone to the kitchen and made myself a pot of coffee.
Qua what arms the people have rights to keep and bear,
the US Supreme Court said in US v. MILLER (1939) 3O7 US 174 that they should be:
"ordinary military equipment ... AYMETTE v. STATE 2 Hump. [21 Tenn] 154, 158." [All emphasis was added by David.]
The AYMETTE case, which the Supreme Court approvingly adopted declares:
"the arms, the right to keep which is secured,
are such as are usually employed in civilized warfare,
and that constitute ordinary military equipment.
If the citizens have these arms in their hands,
they are prepared in the best possible manner to repel
any encroachments on their rights." [All emphasis has been added by David.]
I just woke up. I'm ready for the weekend now.
