Ben Winograd -
The Court has released the opinion in District of Columbia v. Heller (07-290), on whether the District’s firearms regulations – which bar the possession of handguns and require shotguns and rifles to be kept disassembled or under trigger lock – violate the Second Amendment. The ruling below, which struck down the provisions in question, is affirmed.
Justice Scalia wrote the opinion. Justice Breyer dissented, joined by Justices Stevens, Souter and Ginsburg. We will provide a link to the decision as soon as it is available.

How in the **** was this a 5-4 decision. This should have been a slam dunk 7-2 or at least 6-3

"Heller affirmed. " is good right? So they are affirming it was bad to ban? I have trouble with the double negatives.

Watch your step, as you're getting off the banana boat . . .
Of course, you're correct, but, there is no real compunction to follow any law or to interpret anything as it plainly reads by English grammar rules.

With this 5-4 split, I'm thinking a McCain victory is more important now. I hate Bush and think he was the worst President in my lifetime, but he did two good things... Roberts and Alito

Yes, the devil is in the details . . . hopefully it's not overly narrow.

You would think, on a simple question like an inalienable right supposedly guaranteed in the Constitution, there would be no debate whatsoever.
But if the Constitution declared that "day is light and night is dark", despots and fools would find a way, over the years, to convince people that "day" and "night" are indefineable, "light" and "dark" are really just different shades of gray, and confuse the masses into believing that what it REALLY means is whatever they tell you it means.
