Fresh off the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history, the Supreme Court refused Monday to hear a challenge to assault weapons bans passed in Connecticut and New York after the Newtown elementary school massacre of 2012. The challenges were denied, as expected, without comment from the court. Just last December — five days after a terrorist attack killed 14 people in San Bernardino, Calif. — the justices had refused to hear a challenge to a Chicago suburb's ban on such semi-automatic weapons. |

Good. Now is not the time.
The time will be after Trump fills Scalia's seat with a confederate of Thomas, and hopefully a replacement for Buzzy Ginsburg, who will certainly be retiring in the not-too-distant future. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
