Ignorance in action
Widely quoted from Justice John Paul Stevens' dissent in the U.S. Supreme Court's District of Columbia v. Heller decision: The court majority "would have us believe that over 200 years ago, the Framers made a choice to limit the tools available to elected officials wishing to regulate civilian uses of weapons." Evidence of that choice is "nowhere to be found," Stevens wrote, presumably with a straight face.
WTF is the Bill of Rights, if it isn't a list limiting the tools available to elected officials wishing to infringe on individual rights?
It's long past time for the ball to be taken from Stevens' hands.
