Musings of a Compulsive Thinker

Go Montana!

This kind of thing gives me hope that my constitutional rights are still relevant.

From the Washington Post (full article >>):

"Montana officials are warning that if the Supreme Court rules in the D.C. gun ban case that the right to keep and bear arms protects only state-run militias like the National Guard, then the federal government will have breached Montana's statehood contract.

"Nobody is raising flags for the Republic of Montana, but nobody is kidding, either."

If it comes to a Republic of Montana vs. a Big Brother kind of America, well, I know which side of the border I'll choose. I'd rather not leave my personal safety and that of my family in the hands of someone else, especially in light of the legal implication that the police are not obligated to protect the citizenry. Also, I can't afford to hire a personal bodyguard.
