The Supreme Court Ruling on the D.C. Handgun Ban came down today. This case was more about whether The Right was an Individual or Collective Right.
They Ruled 5-4 that it is a .....

INDIVIDUAL RIGHT !!!



SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- In a major backing of gun-ownership rights, the U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday struck down a 32-year-old municipal ban on handguns in Washington D.C., according to media reports. The justices, in a 5-4 ruling, cited the Second Amendment in supporting the right to own guns for self-defense and hunting. The court had not conclusively ruled on the Second Amendment since 1791, according to the Associated Press.
