It protects against federal infringement, dumbass.

Ahem. The DC Gun Ban is a local ordinance, not a Federal Law.

Dumbass.

Technically, it is Federal Law. DC isn't a State. This ruling could be construed to apply to all Federal agencies as this Court is the one that hears cases relating to Federal departments. That's according to another web forum, I haven't verified it for myself.

However, if true, then the BATFE is now in contempt of Court...

"Ahem. The DC Gun Ban is a local ordinance, not a Federal Law."

You can see my post 544 above. DC is unusual in that all the local law is treated as Federal law because Congress created DC. This is explained in Footnote 13 on pages 39-40 of the Parker decision.
