Damn hippy San Francisco fag judicial activists trying to impose their pc views on the rest of us. Hmm I guess they'll be coming to get your guns. I don't own any guns but think the constitution gives me the right to own one. What do you all think?

"The historical record makes it equally plain that the amendment was not adopted in order to afford rights to individuals with respect to private gun ownership or possession," Judge Stephen Reinhardt wrote.

The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals is the same federal court that ruled earlier this year that the phrase "under God" in the Pledge of Allegiance violates the separation of church and state.
I can see where the judge is coming from, but this statement strangely assumes that individuals don't comprise or start militias. He seems to think that militias are a goverment idea and/or regulable because of the wording of amendment. It ignores the role of militias as independent military unions that can provide physical solidarity and resistance, a counterweight as we tip toward a homogenized police state.
