They posted an article late yesterday reminding us of the details of the Heller case.<\/p>\n<p>The article reports:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>It\u2019s a lie so absurd that I honestly don\u2019t know where to begin, but I\u2019ll give it a shot: No, the Heller decision was not about toddlers. It had nothing to do with toddlers. Nothing. It\u2019s no coincidence that the word \u201ctoddler\u201d doesn\u2019t appear in either the majority or dissenting opinions in the case. Nor does the word \u201ctoddler\u201d appear anywhere in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.supremecourt.gov\/oral_arguments\/argument_transcripts\/07-290.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">110-page transcript of the case\u2019s oral arguments<\/a> before the <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Supreme Court of the United States\" href=\"http:\/\/maps.google.com\/maps?ll=38.8905555556,-77.0044444444&amp;spn=0.01,0.01&amp;q=38.8905555556,-77.0044444444 (Supreme%20Court%20of%20the%20United%20States)&amp;t=h\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"geolocation\">Supreme Court<\/a>. Because the case had absolutely nothing to do with toddlers.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>&#8230;No mention of toddlers. Because the case wasn\u2019t about toddlers. It was about whether the <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Washington, D.C.\" href=\"http:\/\/www.dc.gov\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"homepage\">District of Columbia<\/a>\u2019s \u201ctotal ban on handguns\u201d \u2014 the<a href=\"http:\/\/www.scotusblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/06\/07-290.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"> Supreme Court\u2019s characterization of the law at issue<\/a> in the case \u2014 was constitutional. The Supreme Court ruled that D.C.\u2019s ban on handguns was unconstitutional and that Heller, a police officer, had a <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Constitutional right\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Constitutional_right\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">constitutional right<\/a> to own and bear a firearm in his home. It had nothing whatsoever to do with toddlers.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>If Clinton opposes an individual\u2019s constitutional right to keep and bear arms to protect his or her family, she should just come out and say so instead of blatantly lying about <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scotusblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/06\/07-290.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">the Supreme Court\u2019s decision<\/a> on the matter. But it gets better: after claiming that the Heller decision was all about toddlers, Hillary then claimed that the <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"United States Constitution\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/United_States_Constitution\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">Constitution<\/a> guarantees a right to <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Intact dilation and extraction\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Intact_dilation_and_extraction\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">partial-birth abortion<\/a>, a practice that requires an <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Abortion\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Abortion\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">abortionist<\/a> to rip an unborn baby from the womb, stab or crush her skull, and then vacuum out her brains. Because Hillary Clinton\u2019s top priority is protecting innocent children from violence.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I can&#8217;t even imagine who told Hillary Clinton that the Heller case was about toddlers or who thought the public would buy the lie. In the past, before the advent of alternative media, it might have worked. However, I am hoping the American public will investigate this on their own and see the absurdity of this claim.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I watched part of the Presidential debate last night and was someone confused by one of the claims made by Hillary Clinton.
