You mentioned Heller, no doubt with good reason. Argubly that will become the standard for the gun cult.

Have you read Chapter 12? Federalist 29?

My "claims" aren't new, at least, not really. They've just been ignored by the distortions of the gun cult and its stooges.

And of course every police force is supporting her, well except the New Haven officers. I'm sure she'll be a very active legislator from the bench when martial law breaks out because of the massive depression we are about to enter.

Or you can believe the alternative, (the real one hidden behind all the she's-a-dangerous-militant hype) of their opposition to Sotomayor, which is their opposition to all civil rights period, whether for Hispanics, African Americans, or any other minority group which they see as being inferior to the white race.

That's also why they are so obsessed with the gun ownership issue. They believe they need to be well armed when the conservative Republicans finally do manage to trash the voting rights act and all other meaningful civil rights laws, which (according to their belief system) would send Blacks and Hispanics into the streets to loot and burn. IOW's they wanna go back to the way it was in the 1940's and 1950's, when minorities knew their place and got lynched or run out of town when they got too uppity.

You're probably all thinking this is more of Wakeholden's usual bullshit which oughta be moved to the Paranoia Files, right? Trust me, there are thousands, maybe millions, of people out there who still think like this, and they aren't all down South either.

Look at Justice Roberts record. Now he IS a SC Judge who makes law from the bench which reflect his political view. Look at how he rules in almost every case. Oh, but he's conservative, so that's ok?

A depression brought on by the near total incompetence and stupidity of the previous 8 year Republican administration, which basically was asleep at the wheel, and obsessed with Al Queda terrorists and the Iraq War to notice that the bankers and hedge-funders on Wall Street were working feverishly selling our future down the drain and around the world in the form of toxic mortgages. Of course, they made sure they did away with all that worrisome financial regulation beforehand which was like a big liberal bureacratic log-jam to a free market trickle down Christian conservative economy.

Naturally, it won't be the millionaire swappers, the bankers, the traders, the Madoffers, and the speculative hedge-funders who suffer the most in the event of a great depression. It will be the average working American, which includes a few non-illegal Hispanics and a handful of African Americans, (the ones that aren't out partying on welfare checks or looting white-owned businesses that is).

And of course, with people like Sotomayor on the bench, the government will be able to quickly get laws passed making it easy to collect all the guns down at the County Firearms Depository so they can enforce their Socialist Manifesto without a lot of bloodshed.

And once all that is accomplished, then Obama comes out of the antichrist closet and tells us live on CNN that we all have to get our foreheads stamped or implanted by the Federal Reserve with some digitalized version of 666, and then we bow down and start worshiping the Obama One. Amen?

All I can say is, I'm glad I live near the Canadian border.

Well, not that near, but I can be there before tomorrow.
