Obama’s Supreme Court Pick — Just in case you were wondering…

Sotomayor is not really a big fan of the 2nd amendment.  Short summary: She thinks that the 14th amendment, which has been used as an argument that ALL of the bill of rights must bind the states as well as the government doesn’t apply to the 2nd amendment.  Why?  There was some ruling that occurred before the 14th amendment that directly addressed this point and said the 2nd amendment does not apply to the states.

Eh.  So she sides with the dissenters in Heller v DC.  Why am I not surprised.
