Washington DC Council to Enact Sweeping New Gun Laws Tomorrow

[RDak]

Above, someone asked why Gura chose the DC law to challenge. He did so in order to avoid the question of whether the 2d Am. is subject to incorporation.


Quote:
This court is going to follow both this precedent, as well as the Heller decision, in interpreting the constitutionality of any new laws. Sure, the mayor can appeal past them again to the SC, but the SC is highly unlikely to agree to hear another, similar case and be toyed with.

Unless the composition of the court changes, and they want to revisit the question in order to give a different answer.

You're right. It got our "foot in the door" so to speak and we really did well IMHO.

It's been forty years since the 1968 Gun Control Act was passed and we took alot of hits during the interim IMHO.

The 2nd Amendment now stands for an individual right and self-defense is included in that individual right. To me, that is something that makes me smile all over.

It's a dream of a lifetime.
