SCOTUS Refuses to Hear 2nd Amendment ‘Assault Weapons’ Case, Clarence Thomas Files Sharp Dissent. The Supremes pull more bullshit from their asses that has nothing constitutional about it. Pray Obama does’t appoint again. It you haven’t done it, it’s time to join the National Rifle Association.
Thomas was also dismissive of the 7th Circuit’s claim that the “assault weapons” ban “may increase the public’s sense of safety,” which that court deemed “a substantial benefit” of the city’s actions. But as Thomas pointed out, “If a broad ban on firearms can be upheld based on conjecture that the public might feel safer (while being no safer at all), then the Second Amendment guarantees nothing.”

You missed one,
A lawyer questioning a doctor during a trial:
Q: "Doctor, before you performed the autopsy, did you check for a pulse?"
A: "No."
Q: "Did you check for blood pressure?"
A: "No."
Q: "Did you check for breathing?"
A: "No."
Q: "So, then, it is possible that the patient was alive when you began the autopsy?"
A: "No."
