Mass: "Black robes and hot lead"
Notice how they act as if Emerson doesn't even exist. The antis really seem to be attempting to pretend that the 9th is a higher court than the 5th.

Oh, a Massachusetts paper
It figures.
Ever notice how these smaller papers ape the major ones - in this state, the Boston Globe - to appear urbane and sophisticated? Pittsfield is in Western Mass., still a rural/blue collar area with a lot of hunters. The editorial board is obviously sucking up to the "Five College Community" and Ben & Jerry socialists over the border in Vermont........ |

Good Number 6 graced us with;
"obviously sucking up to the "Five College Community" and Ben & Jerry socialists over the border in Vermont........" The only state that actually recognises the 2nd amendment. The only one. THE ONLY ONE. |

The enlighted attitude of The Green Mountain State regarding firearms rights
is well-known. It is also in peril from precisely those elements identified above.
Vermont has been a mecca for the New Age types for over three decades, as well as yuppies oozing North from NY and CT on 91. Want evidence? 1. Ben & Jerry's corporate support of anti-gun groups; 2. The skyrocketing cost of land; 3. The commensurate decline in family farms; and 4. Phish. Enough? |

I have no doubt that the Green Mountain
State will follow the lead of the other 49 in time. However, since it is the ONLY state that recognises the 2nd as law, I say credit where credit is due. |

Actually the 9th Circuit decision will probably bring us closer to a decision by the Supremes on the 2A issue & the sooner the better. We want Rehnquist to be the presiding judge when it happens and not some neo-Gore/Hilterly clone appointee.
