WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Supreme Court ruled on Thursday, for the first time in the nation's history, that individual Americans have the right to own guns for personal use, and struck down a strict gun control law in the nation's capital.

The landmark 5-4 ruling marked the first time in nearly 70 years that the high court has addressed whether the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution protects an individual right to keep and bear arms, rather than a right tied to service in a state militia.

That's perjury. It's a big deal.

There are plenty of people who chant "bush lied, people died", etc etc. That very well may be the case. If he is put on trial and commits purjury during the trial, at that point he'll have commited the same offense that got Clinton in legal hot water (which is different from "popularity" hot water)

I'm no fan of Bush, but anecdotes and bitterness don't move the country forward. Focus on what is factual and objective.

Good thing the Democratic Congress has fixed everything they said they would! Whew!

Should have been a unanimous decision at the very least and never should have made it to the supreme court

have to say, scares the shit out of me too.

[sarcasm]Let's just burn the constitution already so we can completely control everything a person does or thinks.[/sarcasm] 😕

Yep. Now imagine if for the last 8 years conservative justices were not put on the bench. The liberals would have stripped the 2nd amendment straight out of the constitution.

Exactly. Thank God it was ruled on now, and sets a precedent for any future attempts though.

I was worried as shit about this decision when they announced they'd be "deciding" on it a couple months back.
