The Supreme Court may give its ruling in the D.C. gun ban case Monday.
Then again it may not.
Stay tuned.
UPDATE: Nope.
Look for Wednesday or Thursday.

It looks like everyone is holding their breath today.
I'll say it one more time. I believe this is a huge mistake and the USSC will word this ruling in such a way that sticks a knife in our backs. On the surface it will look good but in the big picture is will allow more gun laws.
Frankly, I want to be wrong and if the court just ruled that the lower federal appeals court ruled correctly and tossed it back to them to order DC to correct their gun laws. I would be a very happy camper. However, I don't believe they can make such a ruling because of their egos. They will have to put in their two cents which the wordsmiths will twist and turn against us. The problem is the elected lawmakers will say the USSC said this so this law is correctly being passed. We will have to spend millions to fight it and it cost the anti's nothing to pass the bill and the fight will be against the federal government who has the world's deepest pockets.
Again, I'm hoping my post looks very stupid at the end of the day. If only we are so lucky.
They're going to give us an awful going over, and it won't matter one bit what we do or say. We stopped being a Republic a long time ago.But since when did our lives depend on five socialists and four moderates? I will not be disarmed.
June 21st was the three-year anniversary of the Kelo decision, by the way.
"when the Supreme Court ruled 5-4 that local governments may seize homes and businesses even against the owners' will for private economic development" is how Associated Press puts it.
That's usually referred to as "stealing."
I thnk of Patricia Konie standing in her own kitchen in New Orleans, with a TV news crew talking to her, as she's wrestled to the floor by a squad of JBTs. She wasn't even actively resisting giving up her gun and being transported away according to Nagin/Compass orders.
At least it wasn't unanimous that we don't own what we own and our local overseers are our Deciders.
The SC is flirting with irrelevancy. Governments large and small are stomping around the sleeping giant, heedless of the consequences of waking him.
