On 9/11 Plotters Will Face Death: Holder
I--Honestly, dontlikeyou, I trust the Obama administration. I think others here, and perhaps in the wider US population, agree with me. "No one?" No one trusts the administration? I'd be tickled to have that backed up by a link.

On Supreme Court Will Hear Challenge to Local Gun Laws
Sorry to break the fourth wall, as it were, but I have to weigh in. I think it's very important to note that when we talk about the 1st or 2nd Amendment--or the 14th, which could play a big a part in this case, and is discussed in the source article, which you all should read if you haven't--we should remember what the thing we're talking about is called. Lost you? It's "amendment." The Bill of Rights is composed entirely of amendments, some of which have stood since the Constitution was ratified, and some, well, not so much. My personal opinion is that, since our nation no longer tolerates militias, it need not afford individuals the right to bear the arms necessary to form those militias. I'm not anti-gun--I just don't think gun owners should use a 200-year-old document as a crutch. What's wrong with making the point in a modern context? And for serious, read up on the fascinating constitutional questions in play.

I think other readers would accept your criticism more freely if your writing suggested you could understand the source material.
