  This thread is likely gonna be a minefield and get canned, but the article takes a swing at the 2nd Amendment, for example, pretending to be impartial but calling it a "reinterpretation".

I was surprised to see it go dead almost instantly. It's a fair comment (well, the minefield part is unnecessary). I wanted to reply with:

Listening to the decision is fun (Heller 2008).

Justice Antonin Scalia reads Heller(2008)[1] for the majority:

Weird. I have showdead on but was this actually deleted? I see no such comment, but see the other dead comment where someone said a poem or something in another thread.

Yea, all I can think of is that it was deleted, I think a user can do that. I wish I had screenshotted what happened when I hit reply, I thought I saw [dead], but idk.
