"Washington, D.C., handgun ban is unconstitutional, federal judge rules"
The attempts by elected officials to deny the 2nd Amendment keep failing...
On an L.A. Times blog, James Queally informs us:
"In a 19-page order made public Saturday, U.S. District Judge Frederick Scullin ruled in favor of four plaintiffs and the Second Amendment Foundation, a gun-rights advocacy group, which had sued the District of Columbia and Police Chief Cathy Lanier. The plaintiffs claimed that the city's refusal to issue carry permits restricted their right to self-defense.
'There is no longer any basis on which this court can conclude that the District of Columbia's total ban on the public carrying of ready-to-use handguns outside the home is constitutional under any level of scrutiny,' Scullin wrote."
