Blackmoor Vituperative

For the first time in U.S. history, the Supreme Court ruled on Thursday that individual Americans have the right to own guns for personal use, and struck down a strict gun control law in the U.S. capital.

I am amazed at this decision. The Supreme Court actually upholding the Constitution? I am flabbergasted.

Maybe the murder rate in in our nation’s capital will drop a bit now that law-abiding people are able to own the tools to defend themselves. No guarantee of that, but it seems a reasonable outcome to expect, based on evidence from other municipalities.

Maybe this will make people take a look at the rest of the Bill Of Rights, and wonder what the heck happened to it. Maybe this will remind people what the USA is supposed to be: the land of the free.
