DC Judge could care less about SCOTUS

[INGunGuy]

Holy crap, I guess that any old judge can overturn a SCOTUS decision...

You do realize that this is exactly how Heller started as well?

Stand by for Heller II.

judges unfortunatly can say and do about whatever they want in this country without fear of repercussions. but im sure if challenged his decision will be overturned.

Yes, this is one of the follow on attacks. Heller's attorney is Halbrook.

Agree with Kirk! Heller 2.0 will be coming in 2012 by the time the other courts hear the case.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

jed, Halbrook still has the D.C. Court of Appeals to address, then possibly en banc and then the Supreme Court has to accept cert.

So, having the Supreme Court address Heller II is not certain, and 2012 may be optimistic.

There's going to have to be a standard of review laid down. I know that they're afraid of where that will lead, but this has to stop.

Gotta love a broken legislative system and judicial system.... What ever happened to the For the people and by the people?

When did we lose this?

Sometime around 1860'ish...

Maybe a Heller 2.0 will come of this. Hopefully Scallia will choose his words better this time and err on the side of liberty and freedom instead of statism and "common sense gun laws".

...If the people want something isnt the federal governments job to give it to them?

Wow, could THAT be taken out of context!

To answer your question, if the majority of the people want a law and that law is Constitutional, I would say that the elected representatives of the people would be duty- and honor-bound to pass that law.

That, however, is what *I* would say. Apparently, the Democrats in the House and some majority of the Senate feel that the people (you know, their employers) don't really know what they want nor can they be trusted to make good decisions, and therefore, the elected, who know what's best for us, must keep us safe from ourselves.

Do pardon, I feel filthy after typing that. I'm going to go take a shower.

Blessings,
Bill
