The recent Supreme Court decisions regarding the right to possess handguns in the home for self-defense along with the decision to allow for Gitmo inmates to challenge their incarceration i.e. reactivating habeas corpus, continue to stir great controversy. Personally I oppose the former and support the latter - too many guns, too much violence, and a scary erosion of human rights and freedoms does not make for a happy world.
