I'm there in spirit and will be monitoring C-Span and the web as the day goes on.

I would be there if I could. My local denver news is running a story this morning on people camping out in front of the supreme court. I have to admit, I LOVE seeing this. You'd think it was a Pink Floyd concert, but no... it's people who have so long been accused of indifference (the young folks) who are camping out to hear legal arguments (not even a ruling!) regarding a fundamental civil right. That's awe inspiring.

I just came across this: American Daughter Media Center - Front Page » Blog Archive » D.C. vs. Heller Eyewitness — Pregame Report

I've only started reading, but it looks like it could provide a first hand account of what takes place. I haven't read much, so feel free to beat me to the punch and tell us if it's worth the effort or not.

Yes I just saw, and it's also available on the web in a vid stream.

Pray for some Godly wisdom on the part of our Supreme Court judges in relation to this case. Pray hard! Fingers and toes are good, but not enough.

For internet radio, go to www.woai.com; it is good nationwide conservative radio, and they will be covering this today, heard them talking about it yesterday.

Let us hope......

The transcript will be available very soon as well.

Guess it's all over now but the waiting (which, according to Tom Petty, is "the hardest part").

Opinion by the end of June.

Once C-SPAN starts the audio feed (as stated, around 1130), SCOTUSblog will be doing a liveblog commentary on the feed.
