422. You got a swell poster boy there, pal
Try not to be too disappointed he didn't "get a shot off"...

"From the "right wing loonies" would seem to be terribly relevant when that supposed loonie is the guy that wrote the decision. Wouldn't you think?"
Since the decision says the Second Amendment isn't relevant, no, no-one would think that.

"It can be cited as precedent in other cases now."
But only in other cases where the Second Amendment also does not apply. Although right wing loonies can download it and beat their meat over it.

And by the way, you're still dodging the obvious point...that the fifth circuit is the most right wing reactionary circuit court in the country, and as such, is out of touch with pretty much all of America. As the nomination of cross-burnin' Charlie Pickering shows...
