If anyone has a physical view to the SCOTUS building, please report what you see. Is there heavy security building up outside the building? If so, I guess we know what there decision is.

+2008...

The Drama

After yesterday's Take A Child Rapist To Lunch Day at SCOTUS, I share your pessimism. Need to find my happy place ...

Will it be the state of Montana? or the Territory of Montana?

Showtime.

 

[Sandra]

My stomach hurts.

 

[Sandra]

Heller will be last!

 

[Sandra]

Guys! This ruling decides whether the common citizen has the right to bear arms .

 

[asgardshill]

Heller affirmed.

Second Amendment protects an individual right to possess a firearm.

And Scalia wrote the opinion, hopefully in Scalia'esque fashion.

Morton Grove IL - you're next.

 

[asgardshill]

Looks like a 7-2 decision.

(t)here is a second dissenting opinion, but only one majority - no plurality and no concurrences.

 

[Kade]

Looks like a 5-4 Decision, actually.

Kennedy was the swing again..

 

[Kade]

I want to read the decision. I was hoping a bigger majority might finally put this stupidity to rest.

Looks like Scotusblog has been Slashdotted all to hell.
