    BOOKS ? no one reads anymore, that's so 20th century. Hell people are too mesmerized by their cell to look up when crossing a street.

    No one but the police and military should have books. Politicians were elected to lead not to read.

    There is a book set in alternative history where video and the internet come out before novels. Novels become popular and all the adults freak out over kids "reading" these stories with a pre-determined story.

    The courts are making a great case for limiting the power of the Judiciary branch.

    The opinions I've read seem to suggest it won't be worth much but could cost states/cities more trying to defend their bans.

    The idea of our RKBA being fungible and not entitled to strict Constitutional scrutiny but upheld by the whim of an EO is laughable. The Founders must getting quite an ab workout rolling in their graves.

    I have seen it. But I was to see it put into action. There is a great case to throw a certain career communist in jail for 20 years and they are not acting on it. So seeing it in action is believing it.

    An EO is weak sauce. It can be undone as easily as it was done.

    We need some strongly worded supreme court rulings. That's the only thing that will change what's happening at every level of government.

    Not impressed in the least...First, because as previously mentioned, an EO is pretty worthless in the long run...

    Secondly, this implies acceptance of the currently (extremely) watered down version of the 2A based on what is currently popular from the FUDD perspective - e.g. semi-auto blah blah....30 round mag blah blah...

    EO considerations aside, if this was really aligned to the intent of the 2A, it would be at the minimum, inclusive of select fire, crew-served, and DD/artillery classifications. As it's written right now, complete bullshit and in no way aligned to the intent of the Founders.
