There is No Two
Okay, so I was perusing some local news outlets today, and one of the local affiliates had this poll posted:
I'm wondering to myself who the hell that 18% is, and if they're ever heard of the Bill of Rights. There are actually Americans out there who think that we don't have the right to own firearms? WTF!? I guess I shouldn't be surprised though, because I suppose if you think about it; probably 20% of the population also thinks people shouldn't all have the right of free speech. Which is fucking depressing.
What is scarier is that the Supreme Court had an even narrower gap in opinion on the firearms issue. I mean, it clearly says that shit in like, I don't know; the first fucking page of the Constitution. Jesus Christ!

Pretty scary that we were only one liberal justice vote away from the Constitution being trashed. This should be a wake-up call for those who are thinking of sitting out the next election: our next president will be nominating the next two Supreme Court justices. And these are lifetime appointtees. A sitting President can only do so much damage in the 4-8 years they sit in the Oval Office, and much of it can be undone (eventually). But a liberal leaning Supreme Court can cause generations worth of pain to our liberties and freedoms that cannot be undone by anything short of a constitutional amendment. And getting one of THOSE passed is about as simple as passing a bowling ball through a garden hose.
