Justice Alex Kozinski quote

I came across this quote a few years back and would like to share it with you....

"The Second Amendment is a doomsday provision, one designed for those exceptionally rare circumstances where all other rights have failed -- where the government refuses to stand for reelection and silences those who protest; where courts have lost the courage to oppose, or can find no one to enforce their decrees. However improbable these contingencies may seem today, facing them unprepared is a mistake a free people get to make only once." -- Justice Alex Kozinski, US 9th Circuit Court, 2003

He'll be on the en banc panel for the 9th circuit on Thursday for the Nordyke re-hearing. Also on the 11 judge panel are 2 of the judges from the original panel(that ruled the 2A is incorporated against the states), so maybe this will turn out OK after all.
