Statist scum. Why is the capital of the greatest and freest country on earth filled with such socialist government rats who seek nothing but the dissolution of the true rights of US citizens?
It’s the Constitution stupid.

Oh -and since liberals love to legislate from the bench it would be bad for them to find out they could overule the supreme court on any decision they did not like
after all what recourse is there if the lower courts don’t obey the supreme court?

There probably isn’t a prosecutor with the political leaning or the will to bring them up on charges of violating civil rights under the color of law.

“The District's top litigator said yesterday that he expects “a long fight” over the rules.”
And there it is in a nutshell. Anti-gun SOB’s.
Heller should go for legal fees too.

Also.
I’m thinking that they’re going to try and drag this for as long as it takes to get Obama into the WH, and he appoints some other SCOTUS judges to the bench.

Place the city under martial law and send in federal troops to enforce the courts decision

The Post is being cute with the headline - D.C. isn't being sued "again," it's being sued to force it to respect and act on the decision made on the previous lawsuit. The Post's editorial board itself recommended essentially that D.C. flout the decision to see how far it could go. In a more honest world the entire city government would be looking at a contempt finding by now. BTT.

No matter what the Court rules the Socialist that run DC will never allow their citizent o have hundguns in their homes in any manner that would be useful for self protection.
Evrtytime the Courts rules in favor of the citizens the DC Government will right the new rules in such a manner to effectivepy invalidate DC cityizen having handguns and back to court it goers and on and on endlessly......

The federal courts do not take being mocked lightly. If what you say happens, then Heller and friends will end up owning D.C.
Long before that, Congress will take away the power from D.C. and mandate legislation that is in line with the Supreme Court decision.

Right. I want to see these arrogant bastards in jail.

There's one way to make DC listen real quick, file the suit for a trillion dollars and include every council member and mayor equal in liability. They'll spend so much in lawyers fees that the members will be begging for it to stop.

“Years to resolve,” and “expects a long fight?” Sounds like they’re waiting for a Democrat POTUS to come and give them a different SCOTUS, doesn’t it?

They’re waiting for Mr. Heller to die.

Unfortunately it is an established fact in this country that politicians, LEO and bureaucrats on the public payroll can pick and choose which laws they will obey or enforce. Too bad the taxpayers and citizens don't have the same latitude.
