1. What frustrates me so much is why do we need a court to tell us that the positive of guns

is outweighed by a measure of ten million to one by the negative.

Why would a mature adult population need to be forced not to buy and use guns to the point where nobody is safe?

2. If I had to venture a guess,

I would say the main factors are: right-wing greed (gun and ammo profits), right-wing induced paranoia of "grabbers" (to sell guns and ammo), and the right-wing mentality concerning religion, race, and sex (need for a radical militia for the coming revolution against Liberalism).

3. Watching an old VICE on HBO about vets killing themselves with heroin overdose

I wonder if those go down as suicides.

I wonder how many dead soldiers W and Cheney could be asked to answer for.

Could we take every penny the Bush dynasty has, the Cheney family, Halliburton, etal?

Give it all to vets?

I would - you rightwing war criminals are lucky someone like me isnt in charge

4. Thanks for this, I/we needed it,

and of course you, Justice Stevens, and many more are correct.

5. The contortions and tortured exercises

in logic that the right-wing gun lobby exhibits in attempting to hold Heller up as the definitive interpretation of the fairly plain language of the Second Amendment, and reinvent its actual meaning, is a wonder to behold.

6. It is indeed.

I still can't believe a 'majority' went for it.

7. The gunners hate Stevens' dissent.

8. Most right-wingers

hate Stevens' dissent, but in my estimation, that is a good thing...
