Breaking: SCOTUS to hear DC Gunrights case

UPDATE: Breitbart has the first story on it. Here's MSNBC. Conservative Belle has a post on it, and Reason has a blurb and links to other links. From Reason:

Here is the way the Court phrased the granted issue:

“Whether the following provisions — D.C. Code secs. 7-2502.02(a)(4), 22-4504(a), and 7-2507.02 — violate the Second Amendment rights of individuals who are not affiliated with any state-regulated militia, but who wish to keep handguns and other firearms for private use in their homes?”

Just heard about it on MSNBC. The Supreme Court will hear the case that was appealed by officials from Washington DC. More to follow.

The MSM exposure Ron Paul is getting for having raised $5 million last quarter has been tremendous...

Interview with Wolf Blitzer from CNN:

From ABC News:



MSNBC:



A notable omission is Fox News. I went looking for any mention of Ron Paul on their website and didn't see anything.

Here's some radio interviews from today:

Ron Paul raised $5 million last quarter

UPDATE

MSNBC is reporting the same thing:

First Read has learned that Ron Paul has raised more than $5 million: $5,080,000 to be exact. They don't have the total number or donors just yet or the exact average donation, but the campaign tells First Read that "last quarter was a $40 average donation; that trend appears to have continued."

From Reason magazine:

Ron Paul's campaign confirms that it raised $5,080,000 in the third quarter. That's more than double the campaign's second quarter haul of $2.4 million, and as much as "comeback" candidate John McCain has reportedly raised.

By the power of grayskull I hope this train doesn't stop.
