Supreme Court Ruling :(

Human season is now open again in DC. The only thing slowing the shootings has been the hand-gun ban. It allowed police the ability to conduct more detailed searches, and get the weapons out of the hands of people quickly. It isn't like people can HUNT in DC. It isn't like there is a real need for these weapons.

I predict that what will happen is an arms race between the cops and the "robbers." Probably not as bad as it was in LA during the 80's, but perhaps pretty heated. The gangs had a lot more money then and could afford weapons that third-world nations could not afford on the open market...
Some of the silliness of the argument probably comes from capitolization; however, this wasn't even brought up during the case and some of the idiots on the bench didn't even recognize the entire writing of it in either form... Although the court cited the House/Senate version...

AS PASSED BY THE HOUSE AND THE SENATE:
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

AS PASSED BY THE STATES:
"A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."
