Bottom line is, there were many who thought as Alito allegedly did, [at Princeton] nearly forty years ago now. Many. Whether they admit it or not. Given my political slant, I’m not wild about Alito. But fair’s fair. Judge him on his jurisprudence and judicial philosophy. On statements like this: “I think we should look to the text of the Constitution, and we should look to the meaning that someone would have taken from the text of the Constitution at the time of its adoption.”
Which means, I assume, the Second Amendment applies to flintlocks only.
