    If loaded long can you use 40 brass in a 10mm?

    The Second Amendment, as defined in "The Citizen's Almanac"..

    Nonsense. It does not say "stop and remain here forever." It says simply stop. Stop means stop. It does not mean roll past slowly, and it does not mean stop and never go again. Everyone learns in driving school ( or from the study guide or a parent or wherever) that traffic laws universally...

    Surgeon General Nominee Decidedly Anit-Gun

    How does one determine who is likely to commit violence, with a firearm or otherwise? As soon as we bestow that power on some person or entity, that person or entity starts wielding it for political purposes. Calling "gun violence" a public health issue is simply a marketable precursor to...

    The Second Amendment, as defined in "The Citizen's Almanac"..

    The concept of laws needing interpretation at all is errant. I invite you back to the simple analogy I made above, the STOP sign. It's direction is law and is elegantly simple, intentionally so, that we may all know what it means. No interpretation is required or desired. Yet, many bills are...

    The Second Amendment, as defined in "The Citizen's Almanac"..

    But you presume Mr. Hamilton to be correct across the board, a presumption to which I will not bow. His premise is that courts by their very nature must interpret, a supposition to which I do not subscribe. He does at least get the part right about courts being bound by the limits of their...

    The Second Amendment, as defined in "The Citizen's Almanac"..

    Article III, Section 2 grants "judicial power," (note the delibrate absence of any form of the word interpret), for deciding matters of law and equity, arising under this Constitution, the laws of the United States, ... [the rest is about treaties, which are clearly international matters) under...

    The Second Amendment, as defined in "The Citizen's Almanac"..

    I'll add my congratulations and just this further comment on the SCOTUS. The so-called interpretive power SCOTUS enjoys WRT the Constitution was granted to SCOTUS by...SCOTUS! That tells you all you need to know about who really runs thing in the United States.

    Now I have my ccw... Do I carry with a round chambered?

    For me, a firearm meant to provide last resort defense must operate in a one-switch-to-bang manner. That means it not be SAO and will have a chambered round. Carrying an unloaded firearm is only marginally better than not carrying one at all.
