@Guyster45 @irritated_chap @jacksbadass @CNN Supreme Court in 8-0 decision of Caetano v. Massachusetts: "the Second Amendment extends, prima facie, to all instruments that constitute bearable arms"
The most popular rifle in America, the AR-15 is definitely bearable (physically capable of being used) by individuals.
@MzChelle65 @AlexWitt An AR-15 IS a long gun. Buying an AR requires you check the "long gun" box on the ATF Form and is communicated simply as "long gun" to the FBI background check.
@PamperLesMadmen @mmpadellan Go ahead. Vote harder. At the end of the day, the liberal bastions of CA and NY still get only 2 senators each. Frankly, I don't know why they don't just seceed.
@smogitright@NRA Filipino-turned-American here. When last I went to a gun show a few weeks ago in Charlotte, I was uplifted by the fact that there were so many people of all races and ages attending. It really reminded me of how proud I am to be an American. I love this country.
@GregMascera @thehill@realDonaldTrump@GOP I know. But with an election weeks away and public perceptions to manage, vindication for a single man can wait a bit if it means better GOP election results & an originalist judge (even if it's a different one) ensuring authentic interpretation of the Constitution for decades.
@ugafan618 @DanTown22@thehill By putting in a female nominee, there's a practically 0 chance Dems can get away with it. As for Kavenaugh and others they try this on, let Dems cry wolf, if only to give us time to show definitively to everyone they're wrong. So if next they try, the public will roll their eyes.
@ugafan618 @DanTown22@thehill There'll likely be other SCOTUS openings while the GOP controls the Oval Office and Senate. At that point, a fully-vindicated Kavenaugh should be the first pick. By simply putting him on pause, we also get a better chance to build a case to implicate Dems beyond reasonable doubt.
@ugafan618 @DanTown22@thehill There's more time after the election. If this is handled throughly & my instincts are right that the timing's too convenient, then the allegations will be proven false & all will know with little doubt that Dems used false rape allegations for political gain.
