It appears that the WaPo and the New York Times are already engaging in the misinformation campaign with regard to the DC Circuit's opinion yesterday declaring that the Second Amendment secures an individual, not a collective, right.
One thing I've noticed about the comments is that they seem pretty clearly to have NOT read the opinion itself. The characterizations of it are so off-base, unless I conclude the commenters are flat lying, I can only guess they've not read it. Second, many of them seem to be focusing on "this will lead to X, which is bad" and ignoring completely the question of "what does the Constitution actually mean?" I don't think those who are talking about this in the coming days should let the end-result people off the hook so easily.
Oh, and go ahead and read the opinion yourself. It's not that tough to plow through.
