Supreme Court overturns D.C.’s gun ban.


Thinkprogress:


The Supreme Court has ruled 5-4 that Washington D.C.’s 32-year old law forbidding ownership of handguns is an unconstitutional restriction on the right to keep and bear arms. The decision upholds the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia ruling against the city’s gun ban in March 2007.
The ruling is here.
