- “Popularity” is the wrong term. The Supreme Court has relied on evolving social science. conorlarkin 8:00pm · 8/11/19
  - Surely you wouldn't use the limit on shouting fire in a theater to limit political speech? NedoftheHill 8:21pm · 8/11/19
    - Are you seriously equating mass shootings via high capacity firearms with political speech? conorlarkin 8:27pm · 8/11/19
      - Actually, that is what your side does: equate speech with violence. I'm not doing that. NedoftheHill 9:32pm · 8/11/19
        
        The US Supreme Court decides the boundaries of constitutional rights. conorlarkin 9:50pm · 8/11/19
        
        You miss my point. Intentionally I assume. But, you understand it, since you stopped arguing yours.NT NedoftheHill 10:48pm · 8/11/19
        
        My point is backed by Supreme Court case law. Your point is lost on even yourself.NT conorlarkin 5:24am · 8/12/19
        
        Your new point? I wasn't arguing that.NT NedoftheHill 11:39am · 8/12/19
        
        My belief is the SCOTUS should interpret our laws, not rewrite them. That was how it was set up. BaronVonZemo 6:24am · 8/12/19
        
        Are you aware that the Supreme Court’s primary role is to interpret the US Constitution? conorlarkin 11:38am · 8/12/19
