Add Justice Breyer to the likes of Mayor Daley, David Brock, Rosie O'Donnell on guns?
I can find nothing in the Second Amendment’s text, history, or underlying rationale that could warrant characterizing it as “fundamental” insofar as it seeks to protect the keeping and bearing of arms for private self-defense purposes. . . .Such concerns cause self-defense advocates to write:
That Breyer demands armed police protection provided at taxpayer expense illustrates no small amount of elitist hypocrisy considering his dissent in the landmark District of Columbia v. Heller case, in which the Supreme Court majority held the Second Amendment protects the right of individuals in federal enclaves to possess a firearm in the home for traditionally lawful purposes, including self-defense. . . .

Nothing? I won't suggest where Breyer's head was at when he was pretending to be looking.
Must have been a very dark place, Chas...
