So when I visit Washington DC now, I can take my gun with me to the hotel right? It's no longer illegal and their rules on registration don't apply if I'm not a resident.
What was declared null and void was that 1) DC would not issue Heller (or most anyone else) a license and 2) that they required all guns in the home to be disassembled or locked. They did NOT declare null and void the requirement in DC for a license which you do not have.The handgun prohibition is already null and void right now
federal law says I can transport from anyplace legal to own to anyplace legal to own.
If you ask those kind of questions of a big city police department, the answer you get will always be "No!", no matter what the law actually is.Instead of asking on a forum, why not call officials in the area you have questions about so you can get accurate information.
These upstanding public servants argued at a hearing last week (with straight faces, apparently) that a trigger lock would not prevent a firearm from being readily accessible for self defense inside the home. Proof? Well, they said smugly, anti-gun attorney (and former Clinton Administration Solicitor-General) Walter Dellinger had demonstrated he could remove a trigger lock "within a few seconds."
I smell Heller vs DC II.
see this is what confuses me so much. Mayor Adrian Fenty and Police chief Lanier lost so badly in Heller v DC round 1 that I can't believe that they'll be back for more.
You probably can take your handgun; however, you probably may not.
