Here is an interesting tidbit from Sasha Volokh over at the Volokh Conspiracy regarding Kagan;

"In particular — and despite her presumably pro-gun-control views (see the David Kopel post below), she was a good friend of the HLS (Harvard Law School) Target Shooting Club, which I founded in Fall 2001 and was the president of for two years."

On the flip side, it looks like Kagan drafted the 1998 Clinton Executive Order expanding the list of semi-automatic firearms banned for being "non-sporting" as well.

Not anything to get real excited about; but given the Administration, 59 votes in the Senate and their past willingness to push controversial issues, I think we are doing about as well as can be expected with this nominee. Like maestro and Tom, I don't think what is behind Door #2 is likely to be better.
