To those of us that can think past our emotions, this decision was a slam-dunk from the start. However, for those that must emote rather than think logically, this is a frightful decision that is based upon judicial activism from an out of touch, overly-conservative Court.

The First Amendment of our United States Constitution states that We The People have the right to speak our minds. We have the right to freely practice our religion of choice. We have the right to peaceably assemble. We have the right to publish our opinions without fear of government intrusion. Liberals understand this right and explain how they can do or say anything, even sing the "Black National Anthem" instead of the prescribed National Anthem because it is an artist's job to challenge societal norms.

Yet, for some reason, these same people will say that We The People are crazy to own guns, that We The People shouldn't have guns, and, per Barack Obama, we're "bitter" if we want to hold onto our guns. I fail to see how freely exercising a Constitutional right as an American citizen makes one bitter... then again, I fail to see how people are blindly supporting Obama.

I could rehash my entire column Saving the Life of One Child Worth It? but I'll just invite you to read it yourself. In a nutshell, I discuss the entire Bill of Rights, sans the Second Amendment, and show how they all place limits on the government and guarantee rights of individual citizens. The point of the column was to demonstrate that only if you are intellectually dishonest with yourself - a sad quality indeed - should you possibly arrive at the conclusion that the Second Amendment was a collective right.

What became really entertaining with Heller was reaction from the Usual Suspects. Diane Feinstein stated, "I am profoundly disappointed with Justice Roberts and Justice Alito, both of whom assured us of their respect for precedent..." I'm not really sure what her version of "precedent" involves, but as far as I can tell, the original "precedent" is the United States Constitution. Now that she doesn't have to waste so much time coming up with creative ways to ban guns she knows nothing about, she can take five or six minutes and read the Constitution.

Barack Obama claimed, "I have always believed that the Second Amendment protects the individual's right of individuals to bear arms..." Yet, we shouldn't forget that Obama also believes we gun owners are bitter. Of course, Obama has a history of saying things he didn't really mean, so perhaps the correction that will come when he addresses the Brady Bunch that he really believes Americans have the right to wear short-sleeved shirts.

Frank Lautenberg expressed how the Court put "ideology" before "safety." This man is a United States Senator and he's making laws that affect you and me. Perhaps the Court should rule that idiotic elected officials can't run their mouths without understanding basic American rights. I bet he'd be all up in arms (pardon the pun).

While I disagree with parts of the Heller decision, particularly parts suggesting that government can impose "reasonable" restrictions, I'm excited that We The People are standing up to file lawsuits around the country to challenge overreaching "sensible" gun control.

What is "reasonable" to one person may be completely offensive to another. Is it "reasonable" to suggest that I can only own a certain number of firearms? Is it "reasonable" to suggest that I have to pay an annual fee to partake in a constitutionally-guaranteed right? Is it "reasonable" to suggest that I must lock up my guns or put trigger locks on them? It is "reasonable" to suggest that it is okay to defend myself inside my house but not outside of it?

On the heels of Heller, the NRA and other gun-rights proponents are filing lawsuits to challenge the most restrictive laws around the country. This is a good thing - We The People should learn exactly what constitutes a "reasonable" restriction of the United States Constitution.

We The People have taken a page from the Gun-Banner's Handbook - we have the nose of the camel under the tent - we are now going to bring the entire beast inside.
