What is Constitutionalism?
Constitutionalism is the belief that a judge’s proper role is as neutral interpreter of established law, not as pioneer of new law or social policy through judicial activism. As former Sen. Sam Ervin said: "A judicial activist is a judge who interprets the Constitution to mean what it would have said if he, instead of the Founding Fathers, had written it." The constitutionalist philosophy, also known as originalism and textualism, was the jurisprudential norm in American history, but has eroded substantially in recent decades.
Today’s contentious national debate over federal judges is a struggle over the American system of government. Due to judicial activism, the courts have become in many ways simply another political branch of government. Opponents of limited government, federalism, and separation of powers, unable to achieve their goals through democratic channels, increasingly rely on politicized judges to further their goals. A well-organized coalition of anti-business forces, racial grievance groups, trial lawyers, Big Labor, and other activists, funded by the New York-Hollywood axis and trial lawyers, is fighting hard to prevent a return to ideologically neutral courts.

PORT ALLEN, LA (WAFB) – A
ten-year-old boy left home alone with his sister used his mother’s gun
to shoot an intruder in the face, police said. Late Tuesday,
West Baton Rouge Parish sheriff’s deputies received a call to a Port
Allen [LA] apartment complex after several shots rang out from inside one of
the apartments.
Deputies say Dean
Favron and Roderick Porter knocked several times on the apartment
door. The two young children, a ten-year-old boy and eight-year-old
girl, stood on the other side, terrified. "He told his sister to be
quiet and seconds later, they started kicking on the door and finally
kicked the door in," said Sheriff Mike Cazes. The two children ran to
their mother’s bedroom closet.In a panic, the ten-year-old grabbed his mother’s gun for protection. Once the two suspects opened the door,
threatening the kids, deputies say the boy fired a bullet into the lip
of Roderick Porter. The two men were taken to the hospital, where they
were later arrested.
Each man is held on $150,000 bond. A
third suspect, a juvenile, was taken to a local detention center. One
of the suspects, Dean Favron, just finished serving almost seven years
in prison for aggravated assault on a Baton Rouge police officer and
two carjacking charges. He was released on June 6th.[read more]Give that kid a medal and a truckload of ice cream! he’s not only doing the job that the COPS and the COURTS should be doing, but he’s also proving that the firearm is the great equalizer, and an armed response is the only protection you can rely on.

“Bring a gun” – The first rule of gunfighting
Last Saturday night, Richmond Virginia storeowner Mustapha Kassou met an angel. But he had to get shot first.
This particular angel, a shadowy hero whose name has not been released, was carrying what witnesses described as a western style six-shooter carried openly on his hip. And like the sword of fire which angels of old were reputed to carry, this six-shooter was used as a force-for-good to smite the wicked.

Washington, health DC - -(AmmoLand.com)- In defending her decision that the states could enact any form of gun control they wished — with absolutely no regard to the Second Amendment — Judge Sonya Sotomayor has developed a new love for Nineteenth Century court opinions.
But those were also the days when the Supreme Court held that the rights protected in the First Amendment did not apply to the states. Apparently, buy more about Sotomayor wants to base her anti-gun philosophy on antiquated decisions from an era when the U.S. Supreme Court was spitting out racist decisions. http://www.ammoland.com/2009/07/15/sotomayor-takes-axe-to-second-amendment/

Now
that cyber command has been approved and it’s grown increasingly clear
that the US will deploy offensive capabilities, I thought it was time
to revisit recent comments by Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. Norton
Schwartz who said the US can kill advanced surface to air missiles
without F-22s, F-35s or any other kinetic capability. In fact, Schwartz
may have let some of the cat out of the bag when he told a Brookings
Institution audience that the US possesses “the nascent capability” of
taking down surface to air missile sites using offensive cyber methods.

After former NFL and Super Bowl quarterback Steve McNair was found shot dead yesterday, the police said he was a victim of murder, but one well-known sports writer claims the athlete was a victim, instead, of the "American gun culture."
Mike Lupica is the author of more than two dozen sports-related books and novels, an ESPN TV personality, a regular writer for the New York Daily News and, apparently, no friend to gun-rights advocates.
