Supreme Court scrutinizes state, local gun control

[Pathfinder]

I can't believe in this current political climate, with all of the crap being done by bho and kongress,  that so many are missing the point. bho and his minions do not care about the law, the US Constitution, or anything else, unless it can be used as a club to subvert this country. Period.

They will make the deal, ram it through Congress, and force us to contest it in the courts, which should take, oh, 3 to 7 years. How many people in New Orleans have received their rifles and handguns back 5 years after they were confiscated, and 2+ years after the NO gummint was ordered to give them back? And in what condition? Muddy and rusted? Assuming they were even found, what with so many alleged to go home with the visiting LEOs in the trunks of their cars. In the meantime, the feds will register, confiscate, go door to door, use neighbors to snitch, whatever it takes to accomplish 80-90% of what they want to accomplish. Hell, if they only get 50%, it will be a huge win for them.

The ATF will shut down gun shops, Customs will confiscate imports (arms and ammo), the entire Executive Branch will function as bho needs. We've seen this already, bho's willingness to rule through Executive Orders and back-door E-Branch actions. We will be overwhelmed in a tsunami of actions coming from nearly every quarter.

Now, I may be wrong about all of this, the lull on bho and the gun-grabbers' side may be a real "We give up". Looking at recent history in this country, though, say for the past 40 years, I don't think I am. I may be off on the specific methodology used by the gummint, but the clamp down is coming, and it will be creative, or brutal, or both. That is the way of the state.

And we have seen first hand how powerless the Bill of Rights are without people with the guts to fight for them. No one seriously wants a hard war, but we must win all of the soft wars to prevent a hard one.

Well I'm not digging trenches are putting up breastworks in my backyard just yet,  I'm just thnking that some do-gooder is going to try and make lemonade out of lemons and twist this ruling to their advantage.  To me if the court ruling is binding it can be used to standardize regulations.

The bright side is that they are a bunch of over educated, empty headed screw ups, so they DO NOT, as you say,  " function as bho needs." but instead just do as the Obummer SAYS.

There IS a difference between doing what he needs, and following orders from an idiot.
