the supreme court got it right for a change

I am suprised no one has posted any thing about this yet. For those of you who have not heard the news yet, the supreme court released their results on the D.C. gun ban. The found that the out right ban on hand guns was unconstitutional. This is a big decision for our rights. Up untill now the courts have always focused on the "Well regulated militia" and not "The rights of the People" in the second amendment.

We should hail this decision. As gun owners, let's applaud the Supreme Court’s historic decision. The Second Amendment protects an individual right to keep and bear firearms. Now on to Chicago. A City that has almost complete handgun prohibition with the most crime ridden urban areas in this Country. It's not hard to guess why... individual-rights to reasonable protection of life and limb. It's time to keep America's streets safe RnG Members.

Chicago - terrific memories for an eleven year old.
What an arm pit of a City. Hey, the northern suburbs of Minneapolis is no better. The only difference is that the Chicago media will call a spade a spade, while the Twin Cities news media won't even provide a description of the criminals for fear of upsetting the NAACP.

You got that right.

Roving gangs will beat anyone with the courage to confront them. They attack bus drivers when asked for the bus pass or fee. A father who came to the defense of his 12-year-old daughter at Valleyfair, a local amusement park, is recovering after being badly beaten by a group of young black men.
The incident began when the girl's breasts where grabbed by two black men while waiting in line for a amusement ride. After a brief confrontation with her father, one of the men used his cell phone to call his friends at the park for help, saying he “needed his boys back over here to get these bitches.” Soon, the father was severely beaten to unconsciousness — including having his face stomped on and kicked by seven black males. The 41-year-old father, he was treated for a fractured eye socket, numerous cuts to the face and arms and bleeding on the brain.

In my humble opinion that is attempted murder. Lethal force would have been justified by any reasonable and prudent person.

The only way for anyone without direct knowledge of the case, to know that the perpetrators where black was to read about it on line. The news papers or television news would not identify them as black males. That is blatant editing of relevant information.

I must apologize for the HEAT contain in my last post. I could have used more eloquent language. My wife reads my posts. Remember my friends that behind every halfway respectable man, there is a much better woman. Her comment was that as a moderator I should always take the higher road. I allowed my emotions to enter into my posting. For this I sincerely apologize to the RnG community and guests. There is good and bad in every culture. My displeasure is with the news media not with the African American society as a whole. Please forgive me.

As always LT Colonel Brad, you are absolutely correct.

The law here is that each park has the right to ban firearms on the property. However, just perhaps if trained armed individuals were present. The whole idea of conceal carry. Wouldn’t that natural prohibit this pack mentality? If life and limb is threatened to a point that provides just cause to use lethal force. Wouldn’t they think twice prior to attacking the innocent for fear of immediate retribution?

Lt Colonel,
I appreciate your comments and good perspective.
Thank you my friend.

Lt Colonel Smith,

Thank you for pointing out that fact. I have been accused of being too politically correct at times. I always appreciate your comments.

My darling wife also agrees with you.
She said "This forum isn't a coffee club for women, you are men and shouldn't have to apologize for being men."

Thanks again to both you and Lt Colonel Brad.
