Jun. 25th, 2008 05:10 pmThe long -awaited Supreme Court ruling in the Heller case comes out tomorrow. This is, for those of you who don't know, the case brought by residents of Washington, D.C. over the ban on ownership of guns in their own homes. Here's hoping the Supremes have the integrity to read the Second Amendment's plain text correctly.

Well maybe there's another reason for the delay.
My fantasy is that, after delivering a 9-0 decision holding gun control laws are per se unconsititional, respondent Dick Heller is asked to approach the bench. The justices present him with a "US Supreme Court" special edition Kimber model 1911 pistol in a handsome wood presentation case signed by all the justices.
Maybe the shipment from Kimber got delayed?
