See, why am I still not surprised...

Even when the Supreme Court of the United States of America tells them they are wrong...

They do not adhere to the ruling...

So Iguess that means when and if the government tells the rest of us tht the right to keep and bear arms is subject to open infringement...

We can tell the government to go take a long walk on a short pier...

I’m jiggy wit it...

Nothing was going to happen or change anyway with this case...I said that two years ago...

Heller was a narrow decision clarifying ONLY keeping guns in the home. It made it legal to own guns and un-constitutional to ban gun ownership. Heller did not include any aspect of carrying guns outside the home. So no, DC has not violated the Heller ruling in that respect.

Heller was a great victory for 2nd Amendment supporters and for all Americans who cherish Freedom. But it was only a start. A huge start that can be built upon. It ruled that we have an individual right to own guns. Now we need a ruling that we have an individual right to carry them.

The socialists have been slowly winning incrementally. Heller started the ball rolling determining an INDIVIDUAL has a right to own a firearm, not just a governmental body like the National Guard.

The next increment to fight is to establish that the constitution protect the right of DC residents to carry guns outside the home.

So this battle against the gun-banning socialists is being fought one element at time.
