In other words, in the opinion of one of America's most respected conservative constitutional-originalist judges, the madman Wayne LaPierre and his co-conspirators are fraudsters. We can only imagine what he might have made of the majority opinion in Heller v.

And, how about this statement by Circuit Judge Robert Bork, renowned constitutional scholar and foremost exponent of "originalism" in its interpretation:
"[The] National Rifle Association is always arguing that the Second Amendment determines the right to bear arms. But I think it really is the people's right to bear arms in a militia. The NRA thinks it protects their right to have Teflon-coated bullets. But that's not the original understanding."
