Obtuse Judges
Some judges still willfully misconstrue the Second Amendment. In upholding a gun conviction, the appellate opinion read:
"In order to establish a violation under the Second Amendment, one must establish [that] he is part of a state militia," Circuit Judge Robert H. Henry wrote on behalf of the unanimous three-judge panel.
I hope that this one is appealed.

Well, how about quoting the U.S. constitution where it defines the militia?
Geez, how do these people make it this far...

Did the judge invoke [the standard distortion of] Miller?
