ReplyDeleteGawker sites run way too many scripts.

I am so freaking glad I got pushed out of that industry when I did.
ReplyDeletePosner again . . . this guy is the one who wrote the article trashing the Heller decision, in part because "our society is already too litigious" and recognizing an individual RKBA would lead to lawsuits when the right was infringed.
ReplyDeleteHe was also on the 3-judge panel that decided against us in McDonald v. Chicago. They gave as their reasoning that the Supreme Court's older decisions tied their hands . . . but they managed to assert in the decision that there is no inherent right to self-defense; indeed, if a state legislature decides to mandate that you must submit to criminals and not defend yourself, then that would be legal (and by extension, would invalidate Scalia's reasoning in Heller, since it based the RKBA on self-defense.)
In short, Posner is a nut. For some reason, the chattering classes trip over themselves trying to curtsy to him, but I've had a hard time detecting the towering intellect they keep talking about. His reasoning is wobbly at best.
Please, no need to bring in amateur snark. Gawker simply serves as the collector for the debris in Internet runoff.
ReplyDeleteAs for Posner... a simpleton that you smile and pat on the head as you walk by. His time has gone, and he simply doesn't know it.

I don't know,

is pretty good stuff.
