    A Complete Sentence: The Second Amendment

    Exactly, look at the California v. Texas case, Brown v. Board, Grutter v. Bollinger and 100 other landmark cases decided by the Supreme Court. Justices are actually never identified by their political party. That is what makes the judicial branch unique from the legislative and executive...

    A Complete Sentence: The Second Amendment

    If the metric for success in a government branch is based on public opinion, then they all are losing and have been for the past 100 years! 😂 You will notice the executive approval only changes with whomever is in power. Those numbers say much more about our society than they do about the...

    A Complete Sentence: The Second Amendment

    I think you’re taking more offense to this than was intended, which is none. Naturally human beings are imperfect and have bias. The question that we in the law must always ask ourselves is whether we can put that bias away as best we can to arrive at the correct conclusion in accordance with...

    A Complete Sentence: The Second Amendment

    The real issue with your position is that you confuse judicial philosophy with political bias. It is easy, and frankly a little intellectually lazy, to suggest that a justice interpreted the 2nd amendment simply to conform to a long held bias. It takes more discernment to carefully read the...

    This would be accurate only if his 30 years of jurisprudence supported that conclusion. However, it does not.

    They are generally principled. Scalia is really one of the foundational fathers of textualism and perhaps it’s greatest proponent.

    I get the sentiment but take my word that it is the best judicial system the world has seen, warts and all.

    What's on the smoker today?

    Smoked part of an oryx backstrap at 250 until it reached an internal temp of 125. Turned out awesome. First time having oryx. I used howtobbqright hot bbq seasoning and it hit the spot.

    Any Magview Users?

    Is it pretty easy to get it aligned? Have you tried to use it with a magnetic case instead of their plate?

    A Complete Sentence: The Second Amendment

    That’s just an unnecessarily cynical way of viewing the split. If the justices and their clerks cannot find precedence to support their decisions then they cannot (1) convince the other justices of their position, and (2) they cannot support their position in the written ruling thus leaving it...

    Any Magview Users?

    Thinking about purchasing the magview adapter for my spotting scope (Swaro ATX). I’m planning on checking it out at a Hunt Expo next week, but would love any feedback from those that have already used it. Pros/cons? I don’t love the price tag, but I get tired of switching out for a new...

    Here are the seminal cases in full if anybody is interested in the substance of the arguments instead of unwittingly suggesting the justices were uninformed. One can glean a great deal by reading them. https://tile.loc.gov/storage-services/service/ll/usrep/usrep554/usrep554570/usrep554570.pdf...
