What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?
-- Ayn Rand, Anthem (Chapter 11)
Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".
"Everything the State says is a lie, and everything it has it has stolen.

"Every time something really bad happens, people cry out for safety, and the government answers by taking rights away from good people."

That's pretty telling when the plaintiffs close after the first week... some of you might need to be more optimistic. *Fingers crossed*
"There is no news in the truth, and no truth in the news."
"The revolution will not be televised... Instead it will be filmed from multiple angles via cell phone cameras, promptly uploaded to YouTube, Tweeted about, and then shared on Facebook, pending a Wi-Fi connection."

A World Without Guns <- Great Read!
If there is one thing I know about the politics of guns, it is that the trial is pointless and the decision was already made long before the trial even started. This judge knew what the decision would be before the trial even started. The actual trial is just a formality to make it look like everything was fair.
It's disgusting that "research" like that done by Webster (or climate "scientists" like Michael Mann) gets any support at all rather than getting them laughed out of academia. Their inferential reasoning ought to get a high schooler a repeat class but these bozos get federal funding and named chairs. They disgrace all scientific professions.
Is it fair to say the ruling will be appealed no matter what? Could it end up going to the Supreme Court? Would they take the case and if so what implications might that have for the rest of the country?
