That was KOZINSKI the head judge. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Kozinski . He is Romanian and is very liberty oriented in his views having suffered under a communist government as a child.

Ask Jello Biafra...
Of course, a lot of what he was dissed for back in the 70s seem like good ideas now.
Boinking Linda Ronstadt? Back then? I'd hit it.
Breaking NASA's monopoly on manned spaceflight? That would have been the greatest thing anybody could have done. We'd be on Mars right now.
Viewed through the lens of the non-entities who've had the job since then (Pete "electricity deregulation and Chinese food up a tree" Wilson? Grey "most descriptive politician name ever" Davis? Arnold "If my last name was Jones I'd never have gotten this job" Schwarzenegger?) he doesn't look that bad.
He seems to have done about as well as Mayor of Oakland as anybody could hope for in that ungovernable cesspool, and he's been the best AG (for us) in a generation...
We could do a lot worse.

Me thinks there is a good deal of irrational exuberance in the CalGuns camp. Asking a question can be done for two reasons, one is that you want an answer that you had not thought of, the other is so that others hear an answer that you are hoping will ensue. Some of the questions posed by the court were likely of the first reason. With limited time allotted, unfortunately sometimes the latter reason goes unfulfilled.
If I were to hazard a prediction, I would say that the 9th would delay any decision until after SCOTUS at least hears the other two cases, and then comes down with a near parallel affirmation of the original 3 judge panel.

BEcause he's a donkey's behind. Don't forget what California was like when he was Governor. Was pretty bizarre. It's just odd that he seems to want to support 2A in CA, either he has an ulterior motive or he's completely lost his marbles.-POLICESTATE,

Ah. Thanks.That was KOZINSKI the head judge. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Kozinski . He is Romanian and is very liberty oriented in his views having suffered under a communist government as a child.
I've never heard Chief Justice Kozinski speak before. When I first heard him questioning (Donald!
) Kilmer, I thought "oh, no, who's this guy". But then he seemed to give at least as much "attention" to the County's counsel.

Does anybody know the name of the judge who sounds like hes about 300 years old???? He asked the Counties attorney "What YOUR group feel about this?" About a half dozen times before he finally conceded she represented the county?Life is too short to drive a Ferrari...

I think he's trying to get behind whatever rhetoric either side might have prepared ahead of time.-POLICESTATE,
