Does Twitter want specific performance? Is that even an available remedy? Isn't there a billion dollar liquidated damages clause?

How did carpetbaggers, slimeballs, dweebs, and generalized assholes come to rule the Texas GOP?
I voted in the Republican primary this year. First time I've done that since before 2015.

You know, I can't think of anything more American than schoolchildren being slaughtered in their own classroom. It's right up there with apple pie and poor test scores in reading, math, and science.

I'm saying the framer's expectations, even if their collective intent could be ascertained, is irrelevant. All they did was draft the document. If you're going to look beyond the text to find meaning in the words used -- e.g., perhaps you think it's ambiguous -- then what matters is the intent of the states that ratified it.

I obviously read what you quoted, which has to do with the text of the second amendment and is correctly arguing that the first part should be given meaning. This is true under any theory of textual interpretation. What do the founder's expectations have to do with that?

Scalia accepted that but then he gave it no meaning at all: https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/07pdf/07-290.pdf- [Discussion] Mass Shooting at Uvalde Elementary School
But the commas are placed so they don't have to give any meaning at all to the first part.- [Discussion] Mass Shooting at Uvalde Elementary School
