75. Facts are stubborns things aren't they?

Edited on Wed Jun-09-04 11:35 PM by hansberrym

Fact is the framers of the second amendment spoke of the right in individualistic terms, as did the framers of the 14th amendment.

BTW:

Whose definition of "militia" do you suppose should be used when interpreting the Miller holding?

Should we use the Suprem Court's definition from the Miller
Decision? (sounds logical to me)

Should we use Judge Reinhardt's definition?

Or maybe Library_max's definition?

I suppose that if we wanted to interpret US v. Miller IN CONTEXT,
then we would use the Miller Court's definition.
