Question for Sam Alito

As a dog who has seen the inside of more courtrooms than Harriet Miers AND TOLD HER SO, I had a question for Sam Alito.

In his dissent in U.S. vs. Rybar, 103 F.3d 273 (3rd Cir. 1996), he neglected to address the the Second Amendment defence made by Rybar.

Was that because he believed the Second Amendment is a collective right (I.e., belongs to the militia, or National Guard), or just an oversight on his part?

Inquiring dogs wish to know!

Next question, how in the heck could he argue that anything was not in interstate commerce? Does he think all people are peasants who don't leave their hometowns (Michael and him would be fabulous friends)?

Not to mention, I may be presenting a case before him at the SCOTUS! Pro bone publico, of course!

After all, I am smarter than the President of the United States!

As for my secret for sneaking into courtrooms, the security in Doylestown was nonexistant until about six months ago, which is part of my success in sneaking into courtrooms. Not to mention I used to go into certain civil courtrooms within the First Judicial district, which is just putting in security. But those are only a few of the many courtrooms I have been in.

A little late for this.

Michael has this habit of taking me with him most places he goes in my sherpa bag. That includes court sometimes. So, I've actually been in more courtrooms than Harriet Miers.
