McDonald

Nothing new to report on McDonald. The media has their collective knickers in a twist over the defeat they expect to see handed to Chicago.

One thing to watch for, assuming that Mr. McDonald prevails, is to see which "side" on his side is painted as the "loser". Mr. Gura took what this commentator thinks is a risky approach to the case and, perhaps, watered down his gun rights case to make some other point. I'd hate to think that my gun rights were put at risk because Mr. Gura had some sort of conservative bee in his bonnet about the Privileges and Immunities clause. The path of least resistance for the Court is the Due Process route presented by the NRA. Should the Justices pick one view over the other, the Anti's will try to claim that as a defeat for one "side" or the other.
