Last week the Supreme Court struck down a 30-year old ban on handguns in our nation’s capitol. You can argue that on top of violating the 2nd amendment this law was ineffective anyway, as the murder rate continued to increase rapidly over DC’s last 30 years. You can also argue that this ruling is going to hamstring individual state’s rights to act on this issue on behalf of its citizenry. One thing you cannot argue though, is that we need to see more of this soon!
