My understanding at this point is he worked for a security company the provided security for federal buildings.  I guess he got his gun legally.

How many of these people work for TSA...?

Don't disagree, just saying it would not surprise me. Of course these days politicians just use the SCOTUS to bypass the Constitution, so no need to amend it. They just need a new ruling that defines the 2nd as a collective right and not an individual one.

Let's do that with the First amendment, see how far it gets.

Exactly. Plus you get to feeeeeel soooo good by actual "Doing something." 

Not unclear.

But the court is right that nothing says "bear concealed"

I think a reasonable read would be that you have a right to carry, and if the state forbids concealed, then you can open carry.  Or vice versa.

On that point it is silent, therefore no infringement allowed.

Don't forget that President Reagan was loudly critized by liberals for cutting spending... except the "cuts" were smaller increases than the liberals were demanding.

I remember all of the news propaganda about the "homeless" supposedly due to Reagan policies.

Funny how we haven't seen any under 8 years of the Obama Malaise.

That's all likely true.


Trump, however, has admitted giving politicians money as effective bribes.


Clinton is still only alleged to have received such "donations".


Not excusing Clinton at all, trust me.  But Trumps past as the admitted (proud even) payor of bribes makes him a very poor candidate to take on someone accused of receiving them.


There is no moral difference between someone who buys politicians and a politician who has been bought.  Without those willing to buy political favours, politicians would not be able to sell them. 


I find it hypocritical of Trump's supporters to say Clinton is corrupt, yet refuse to admit their God-King is just as corrupt, if not more so.

Obviously you've never been in business where you need to curry favor (or at lease avoid adversity) in order to get your project "approved." Of course, in the history of the world only Trump has made political donations in the course of doing business.

I bet there is an episode of the Simpsons where they actually have Trump in it as a character. I personally can't wait for South Park to get a hold of Trump.

Yeah, after a comedy desert (can't make fun of the black man) for the last 7.5yrs, we could use some laughs.
