Thank you all for the responses.
The Heller decision has left so much up in the air, it will take longer than I had hoped for this ruling to filter down into the lives of citizens residing in states with restrictive gun laws. I just say Mayor Bloomberg’s press conference regarding Heller, and he sees it as a reaffirmation of the legality of NY State’s and NY City’s gun laws.
And I would tend to agree with his assessment here.
Every mayor and governor is going to claim that his jurisdiction's gun regulations are consistent with Heller. All such regulations are up in air until future 2A SCOTUS cases are decided.
Every lefty is whistling past the graveyard on this one.
The right to keep and bear arms has been affirmed by this decision as an individual right.
Keeping and bearing imply owning (in your home) and carrying(outside your home). And this is followed by “shall not be infringed”.
There is no way that, in light of this ruling, the various municipalities’ bans can stand.
