Standard Mischief

The anticipation was killing me, so at 9:42 I left the phone, watch, and PDA at home, saddled up, and went for a bike ride. I wasn’t going to just sit there and refresh the screen until it was released. The highest court in the land said yesterday that all of the remaining opinions would be released today, starting at 10:00 AM.

After exploring neighborhoods nearby via petal power, around 11:15 I returned home and all I had to do was glance at the RSS aggravator. I’m real happy I won’t have to blog about Plan B.

So 5 out of 9 Supreme Beings agreed with the just mildly obscure language in the Second Amendment to the Constitution of the United States that the right to keep fully functional (assembled in working order and without a trigger lock) exists, and people who have them may move them from room to room without a permit err, I mean a permit that D.C. must now issue. It’s not much, but it’s a start. One useless liberty infringing law struck down ~10,000 or so more to go.

I’m not going to read the decision today. There’s plenty of time later for that. And while I may read some of the bloggers, I’ll be most interested in what the anti-freedom people - bloggers and people like Adrian Fenty, Mayor of D.C. - have to say.

I also most certainly want to write about the others in the suit - Parker and others - who’s pleadings to the court just didn’t have standing. There’s a post or two there too.
