Obama’s pick to replace Justice Antonin Scalia is an opponent to the Second Amendment. Merrick Garland is exactly the type of justice one would expect Obama, who has been called the “most anti–gun president in American history” to nominate to the Supreme Court.
One of the most important Second Amendment cases in history, District of Columbia v. Heller, and the case leading up to it was in Garland’s sights. He was one of four judges who voted to grant an en banc hearing of Parker v. District of Columbia, which ultimately led to the ruling by the Supreme Court in District of Columbia v. Heller.
This en banc hearing entails, a decision by the full court of every appeals judge in the jurisdiction where there is more than one three- or four-judge panel. The larger number will sit in judgement if the court feels that there is an especially compelling issue at stake. In this case, Garland felt that the decision made to strike down the District of Columbia’s gun ban was an error.

Wow I am Canadian and after reading some of the comments left by American citizens I am in total disbelief. For those of you who feel it is your constitutional right to own weapons without first having to obtain Firearm Control Certification and a hunting license my understanding is that you are ok with tragic events such as Sandyhook that have taken the lives of your nations innocent children. You are promoting the murders of hundreds of children, how can anyone feel that it is ok. Is it no your constitutional right to live in a nation that is safe for your children to go outside and play. There is absolutely ne reason that a civilian needs to own hand guns and for those who hunt they should be willing to obtain a FAC. I am proud to be Canadian and not have to think about if my child’s school is going to get shot up by some psychotic child who should be on medication but their family can’t afford to send them to a psychiatrist or the medication that would keep them stable. Shame on anyone who promotes the murder of children.
OBVIOUSLY, LITTLE O IS ONLY GOING THROUGH THE MOTIONS!
Then he will continue whining about Republicans being obstructionist.
REALLY! Nominating an ANTI 2ND AMMENDMENT CANDIDATE…
