The Embarrassing Second Amendment

I cannot help but suspect that the best explanation for the absence of the Second Amendment from the legal consciousness of the elite bar, including that component found in the legal academy, 28 is derived from a mixture of sheer opposition to the idea of private ownership of guns and the perhaps subconscious fear that altogether plausible, perhaps even "winning," interpretations of the Second Amendment would present real hurdles to those of us supporting prohibitory regulation.

Impotent fury

Interesting how the West now rails with impotent fury at the Ukrainian plebiscite. The latter event would have never taken place if not for the machinations of NATO, stirring the pot with ultra-rightest provocateurs and government by way of hooliganism. What I don't understand is the obligatory flogging of the Western public with a Russfed smear campaign.
