		<description><![CDATA[NK asks, I presume rhetorically, if every stupid law is unconstitutional. This brings me to a topic I&#8217;ve been meaning to blog about since the McDonald decision: was the reasoning of the Alito plurality really that bad, or even all that different from Justice Thomas&#8217;s position?

		<description><![CDATA[Gaston County is considering a 30-day waiting period on marriages performed by magistrates, unless the couple can show they&#8217;ve received premarital counseling. That strikes me as a very reasonable idea, particularly if Kinston Free Press&#8217;s editorial against it is the best its opponents can do: The proposal originated from a pro-marriage advocacy group in Gaston [...]]]></description>

I can always get [...]]]></description>
