Indeed
Gun rights people need to know what we’re up against and it’s mostly the courts.

As the saying goes, “Firearms only have two enemies; rust and politicians.”
And yes, I consider a judge a politician.

I think I’m going to get a blog post out of this. Thanks.

@rickn8or, you’re absolutely correct and they are the worst of politicians because they are UNACCOUNTABLE even though Article Vi, Section 2 mandates they are to “be bound by the law”.
The prescient wisdom of Thomas Jefferson knew this according to the following, and many other similar quotes:
“You seem . . . to consider the judges as the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions; a very dangerous doctrine indeed, and one which would place us under the despotism of an oligarchy. Our judges are as honest as other men, and not more so . . . and their power [is] the more dangerous, as they are in office for life and not responsible, as the other functionaries are, to the elective control. The Constitution has erected no such single tribunal, knowing that to whatever hands confided, with corruptions of time and party, its members would become despots.” (Letter to William Jarvis, Sept. 28, 1820)
