i am a huge fan of my fellow kentuckian justice sean marshall harlan, the sole dissenter in plessy versus ferguson. i would venture that justice thomas jurisprudence displays the most color blind view of race in our constitution since harlan himself. he respects the 14th amendment enough to apply the way it is actually written. a prime example that takes courage to let straightforward things be actually straightforward. doing this work, doing the actual job of a judge is important and essential. our judiciary has enough to do without reaching outside the constitution without grabbing other powers. radical voices with an agenda push did not have much patient for this kind of restraint. today's left is not content to settle for the outcomes that honest interpretations can apply. so my friend, storm clouds are gathering on the horizon. the very concept of an independent and insulated judiciary is actually at stake. a year and a half ago, the democratic leader in the senate grabbed a microphone, on the supreme court steps, and threatened to justices by name. if they did not rule away that aligned with his views on abortion. half a year b

whereas i think justice thomas' decision set out a framework for analysis which suggests that int all efforts to tighten the law will be accepted. it's a work in progress. >> sean: let me go back to the point about a well regulated militia, our own government at the time to find a militia as the people as a whole. that is how it was defined by the government. >> but remember it was a big fight over hamilton and jefferson about whether there should be a standing army. the second amendment was part of a compromise to give the role of the armed forces over to state militias. so states do have some power, and under our system of checks and balances in federalism you are never going to get a perfect solution. there is always going to have to be a balance struck between the legislature and judiciary and we are going to see this work itself out over the next decade. >> sean: we will give you the last word, gregg jarrett. speak of the states and the founders intended that the bill of rights, it was in one of them, all ten of them be primary, be fundamental rights. that is how it was ratified. the trouble with the new york law is it shifted the presumption in the burden
