I wish I could be so sure that the DC case will uphold the Second Amendment. I suspect it will be a mushy decision as the Supremes will want to keep control of every future appeal, which would not be necessary if the decision was clear.

Hmmmmm. A suit/trial about firearms and no mention of the 2nd Amendment. I guess Bloomie and his lawyers are thinking themselves above the rest of us??!?!?!
Maybe the trial should be held in Sheridan, Wyoming. Wouldn’t that get Bloomies knickers in a bunch. Not to mention the possibility of an improvised necktie party.

Hmmmm, sounds like Bloomie and his buddies are jumping the gun in this case.

lawyers for Mr. Bloomberg argued that the amendment “was not intended to vest armed power in citizens acting outside of any governmental military effort — either federal or state.”
Why would the 2nd Amendment be the only one in the Bill of Rights that doesn’t apply to individual rights? No one argues that the freedom of the press is restricted only to newspaper companies and other media outlets.

Just got back from the dentist...too much elevator music! No Pachelbel’s Canon, no Beatles’ Revolver!
B1: I expected a man of your caliber to fire off a few more in my absence! Personally, I think you have a lot of brass to have done as many as you did! Did someone muzzle you?

This is why blue staters don’t trust liberals and people like obama. The second ammendment is a VERY important part of their lives. Bloomberg needs to read the second ammendment.

He was equipped with a silencer.

Something caused him to bolt! I’ve seen wide receivers that didn’t move that fast! (Faster than a safety! -I think I read that in a magazine somewhere!)

How does the rest of New York feel about Bloombergs decision that the bill of rights doesn’t apply to New York? If Bloomberg wants New York to secede, no sweat off my butt, as long as New York gets none of my tax dollars and New York is no longer considered part of the United States.
Bloomberg needs to be careful when it comes to wishing, the I-80 corridor was built to move products from the west to the east, I somehow think New York, New Yorkers won’t find rat-it-2e pleasant when it actually contains rats.

30 miles of bad road.
Lawyers for the gun store say the two hidden cameras brought in by investigators malfunctioned less than halfway into the purchase and fail to show the precautions taken by the sales staff at the store to prevent a straw purchase.
