It's a Big Day For Gun Owners

Gun rights extended by Supreme Court

quote:

WASHINGTON -- The Supreme Court held Monday that Americans have the right to own a gun for self-defense anywhere they live, advancing a recent trend by the John Roberts-led bench to embrace gun rights.

By a 5-4 vote, the justices cast doubt on handgun bans in the Chicago area, but signaled that some limitations on the Constitution's "right to keep and bear arms" could survive legal challenges.

Justice Samuel Alito, writing for the court, said that the Second Amendment right "applies equally to the federal government and the states."


Now take a look at this.

Of course the people who hate personal freedom will still attempt to manipulate the system any way they can to make it extremely difficult for anyone wanting to possess a firearm for self defense in the gun anal areas of America. This is still a great ruling, since the politicians who are rabid to disarm you, and who are supposed to "keep you safe", have proven time and time that they can't (although they have their own personal body guards), and the courts have gone as far to rule that Americans have no personal right to state afforded protection. The next hurdle is to get the gun anal areas of America (New York etc) to grant reciprocity of concealed carry permits from other states such as Florida so that concealed carry gun owners won't have to plan their trip routes around those states. It should be noted that states rights are only recognized when it works in behalf of the gun grabbers.
