Important Announcement Re: The Heller Case
With the eagerly anticipated USSC ruling in the Heller case looming on the horizon, the DefensiveCarry staff are bracing themselves for a flood of thread starts when the decision comes out.
Everybody will be competing to "scoop" the rest, but only one member will be the first to post the decision. All others will be runners up, and these threads will have to be merged with the first. So please help us out here. To aid us with these inevitable thread mergers, ALL Heller threads are to be posted to the 2nd Amendment Discussion forum. Let me repeat that. All Heller threads are to be posted to the 2A Discussion forum. Period. Nowhere else! Comprende? To the first member to break the news,  in advance.Let 'er rip!

Always trying to be lazy! Always trying to shirk your duty! Merging threads......so it's a lot of extra work......that's why you guys earn the big bucks!
Actually, great idea! It'll probably end up being the longest thread in the world too!

We can only hope, I guess...  You're right, tho. I suppose my expectations were set a bit high, judging by the posts I've deleted in this thread.

Thanks, Jack

I remember what a mess it was when the oral arguments took place. Heck, I contributed to the mess. Kudos for being in front of this one. I hope it goes a lot smoother.

Don't argue with the Captain.  Sounds like some good preplanning to me,
