Why would CBS News give so much airtime to a fringe group of extremists bent on denying Americans their natural, civil and Constitutionally protected right to keep and bear arms? Because guns! To be fair, props to the “Tiffany Network” for giving Gun Owners of America jefe Larry Pratt five seconds of air time in a 1:15 infomercial for Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America and, laterally, its parent company Mayors Against Illegal Guns. Could this news package (and related Pratt-less online gun control story) be any more profoundly biased in favor of civilian disarmament? Perhaps someone should . . .
take Manhattan-raised CBS News president David Rhodes back to his father’s native Texas, avoiding his alma mater (Rice University: A Hotbed Of Wild-Eyed Liberalism That Undermines Family Values) and reacquaint Rhodes with honest-to-God (literally) gun clingers. Maybe his younger brother Ben, President Obama’s deputy national security adviser for strategic communications, should tag along. I’ll buy the beer! Yes, David. Beer.
Shocking and stunning.
I just read the opinion, and I was thrilled with the Ninth’s scholarship and it’s willingness to strike down a law that it wanted to uphold. It was as impressive as Posner’s tour de force in Moore v. Madigan.
The dissent’s main thrust that since longstanding prohibitions were thought presumptively valid in Heller and McDonald, and Cali’s “good cause” was a longstanding prohibition, so it was therefore valid. Which is stupid even for a Ninth Circuit judge.
With the Seventh and Ninth Circuits holding one way and the Second another, this issue will be resolved ultimately by SCOTUS. Let’s just hope that the current majority doesn’t die first, allowing the moron with the phone and the pen to pack SCOTUS with his fascist ilk.
BTW, Kagan might — might — end up being a sixth pro-2A Justice. Her vote in Abramski may be revealing, or not. We’ll see.
What a waste; feral hogs are great eating! Best pork ever!
I can’t afford shooting at a punching bag or training machines…..

My econ degree tells me about pent up demand where if the economy takes a dive and people can’t afford new cars, they keep them running, but they do wear out. When jobs return, there is a backlog of cars to be purchased and high demand. This gun thing might be the opposite. Everyone that thought they should have an AR got one expensive and now wont buy another till their kid grows up or the’re cheap. Exhausted demand
Hopefully.
Now the G-damned G42? That’s another story
