Nice Little Court You Have There...Shame If Something Happened To It
[TTAG] Alito: Democrats’ NYSRPA Brief Was ‘An Affront to the Constitution and the Rule of Law’

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito addressed the Federalist Society last week and held forth on a number of topics affecting the Court. One of the most interesting subjects he covered was the handling of the New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. City of New York gun rights case.

After referring to the right to keep and bear arms as "the ultimate second tier constitutional right in the minds of some," Justice Alito addressed the naked threats made against the Court in a brief submitted by five Senate Democrats in a clear attempt to bully the court.

Five United States senators who filed a brief in support of the city went further. They wrote that the Supreme Court is a sick institution, and that if the court did not mend its ways, well, it might have to be quote, restructured.

OK, 60 for Hirono.
