Quote
"As we explained in Heller," Thomas wrote, "to 'bear arms' means to 'wear, bear, or carry upon the person or in the clothing or in a pocket, for the purpose of being armed and ready for offensive or defensive action in a case of conflict with another person.' The most natural reading of this definition encompasses public carry…..I find it extremely improbable that the Framers understood the Second Amendment to protect little more than carrying a gun from the bedroom to the kitchen."

LMAO!

Liberals are stupid, frightened, Whitney, pathetic, children still mad because mommy made them go to Sunday school and they didn’t get to be hall monitor in fifth grade.

They’ve been told by their communist masters that guns are bad, and they automatically despise anyone that dares to question their great white master in Washington.

And they especially despise black men who don’t submit to their plots to take away our constitutional rights.

I’m going to say “Mostly.” A couple decades ago they were clearly so. Too many of its current crop of staff writers are not able to apply - or possibly don’t fully know - libertarian principles.

This is true, they began in the vein of Milton Friedman - all free market economics, back in the day. I have noticed some evolution toward the current mishmash of leftist/libertarian culture that has infected libertarianism to a degree. But I confess I don’t follow reason.com very closely.
