Best Line in Oral Arguments

I’m paraphrasing here, but as best as I can from memory [Thanks to Uncle for finding the exact quote], when Justice Scalia Roberts was asking Dellinger about trigger locks, and Dellinger claimed they could be removed quickly, since it was an easy three digit combination.  Scalia Roberts quipped back:

“So then you turn on the lamp, you pick up your reading glasses…”

Everyone in the room chuckled.  I’m thinking Justice Scalia Roberts is not a fan of trigger locks.
