SCOTUS... just sounds funny.

[creeky]

Okay...

So yeah, everyone is reading and seeing SCOTUS all over the place.

(Supreme Court of the United States)

Isn't that a really weird acronym? At least when you read it together?

It sounds like something completely else...

SCOTUS... the new sport luxury car from KIA.

SCOTUS... Every year 2,000 sailors and long haul trucker drivers

are diagnosed with "SCOTUS".

SCOTUS... the new piston driven evolution in the AR platform by Magwell.

SCOTUS... a term used when someone breaks line in front of you and your

wife... "MY goodness!!! Did you see that honey?!? They soooo

"SCOTUS"!! The nerve of some people! Really!"

SCOTUS... All right you headbangers!!! Put your hands together for our

last entry in the battle of the bands... straight out'ah Dee Cee...

Let's hear it for... SCOTUS!!!!

[Guest bulletproof]

Hey, we are having SCOTUS and fries tonight.

[Guest JPH]

sounds like "scrotum"

[Guest db99wj]

Sounds like what you would say when you describe a dog that is pulling himself across the carpet on his butt. "Hope the damn dog does not SCOTUS across the floor again!"

[The Rabbi]

I am worried the court will decide against us gun owners. I sure hope they don't SCOTUS!

[towerclimber37]

that dude is such a scotus..look what he did to my skateboard!

I agree. if the SCOTUS strikes down the 2nd amendment, everyone here will likely become criminals.

Rabbi, I tried, but I just can't see you giving up your way of life, your business, much less your ability to protect yourself, because some folks up in Washington said you're not allowed to have a widget.

what will you do if they strike down the 2nd amendment? close your shop? look for another line of work?

[saintsfanbrian]

I think it more sounds like:

"They SCOTUS over a barrel and there is nothing we can do about it."

Djeat?

[Guest Major Pain]

" Hey Doc, will this medicine take the crabs off my SCOTUS"--MP

Do you read this stuff before you post it?

The SCOTUS cannot strike down the 2A. It is legally impossible.

Even if they find there is no individual right, that doesn't make everything prohibited suddenly. In TN we have the state constitution conferring an individual right at least to own guns.

If necessary I would close my shop tomorrow and go dig ditches.

since when has that kept the federal government from stepping in and taking that right?

Elian Gonzales had a right to asylum, even at his young age, but that didn't stop the government from sending armed agents to his aunt and uncles house (though they were following the law and co-operating with INS) to take him back to Cuba.

[Marswolf]

I have to admit that when I see that acronym I think SCROTUS.

[Guest Grout]

If Barak "Redacted" Obama is elected POTUS (President of The United States) he will POTUS at risk for another major terrorist attack among other things.

[Guest jwp]

We're about 18 hours away from the decision being handed down.

Who is buying the first round?

And who is playing the jukebox?

[shaftbass]

My favorite one is IANAL - sounds like a screen name on a gay dating site, or a flamer's license plate.

(It stands for I am not a lawyer).
