Yes, I heard Alan Grayson do it again on Democracy Now. Actually, even if
he's supposed to be a Progressive, I don't like Grayson. I haven't agreed
with him each time I've heard him talk plus, I think he has a snotty
attitude. But anyway, he talked as if the second amendmant gives every
individual a right to protect himself with a gun. Tom hartman wrote about
the second amendment several years ago and pointed out that, that's an
interpretation, and is not what the words say. But when the Supreme Court
rules on something, everyone acts like the ruling is the last word. The law
is manipulatable.

HI
I really can't imagine how the Supreme court jumped from the second
amendment's actual reading to saying that anyone should be able to have a
gun. That isn't what it says. When Steven Colbert tried to read the actual
Second Amendment, his guest said "whatever" to the reading.
