The next 4-6 hours holds the future of gun control and gun rights in the United States.  Washington D.C., having a handgun ban, has appealed to the Supreme Court to ask for their ruling on the 2nd Amendment.  Legal scholars have all had their expectations.  Many expect the court to rule that the 2nd Amendment protects an individual’s right to keep and bear arms.

I believe that the 2nd Amendment, much like the 1st, protects individuals.  In fact, I believe the Bill of Rights protects individuals, not organizations or state-sponsor groups.

I am betting a 6/3 split in favor.
