If there is one thing lacking in this country, it is judges standing up for the right of felons to possess firearms.

An Orleans Parish judge on Thursday ruled that the state statute forbidding certain felons from possessing firearms is unconstitutional, in the wake of a constitutional amendment passed last year that made the right to bear arms a fundamental one in Louisiana.

So, thanks to the NRA, Louisiana gives convicted felons the right to breathe or go to church or enjoy free speech, they must also give them a gun.  On the upside, it’s an outside the box thinking about population control.

Lawyers threw a pile of papers at each other over this because lawyers throw papers at each other the way ancient men threw spears, but the court has ruled so now it heads to the Louisiana Supreme Court when three members of the Duck Dynasty familhy serve as justices.  Would I kid about something like that?  Of course, I would.

Oh, and Bobby Jindal is just so excited about this new freedom.

Thanks to Julie for the heads up.
