		Warren Burger at a press conference in May 1969 shortly after he was nominated to be Chief Justice of the United States.

		Warren Earl Burger (September 17, 1907 – June 25, 1995) was Chief Justice of the United States from 1969 to 1986.

	Warren E. Burger
		Burger's tenure will undoubtedly also be recalled for his marginally successful attempts to pull or lead the Court reliably (or predictably) to the judicio-political center - or perhaps even right of center in some areas - away from its predictable liberal-left majoritarian position under his predecessor's leadership.
		He toured the country, indeed, the world, in his untiring efforts to improve the machinery of justice and to introduce modes of case-load management that will hopefully render the judicial system more viable in both substantive and procedural terms.

		Burger never backed up his personal opinion (delivered verbally at a press conference for a proposed bill which would have banned all handguns) with anything remotely resembling cites or historical references, so we're at a loss as to what he based his opinion on, if indeed he based it on anything at all.
		Burger lent his support during a June 25, 1992 news conference in which Senator Chafee introduced his bill to outlaw the sale, manufacture, and possession of all handguns.
		Burger is entitled to his opinion, but it's clearly an extreme minority one, even among Supreme Court justices.
