D.C. Handgun Case to Be Heard This Week
The Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in the D.C. Handgun ban case, District of Columbia v. Heller, this week.
A decision isn't expected until the end of the Court's term in June. Will we get a definitive statement on the meaning of the Second Amendment?
Via Instapundit, here's a recent poll from USA Today on where Americans stand on the issue:
Nearly three out of four Americans — 73% — believe the Second Amendment spells out an individual right to own a firearm, according to a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll of 1,016 adults taken Feb. 8-10. Yet for decades, federal judges have seen the Constitution differently, allowing a range of gun-control measures imposed by governments seeking to curb gun violence."
TalkLeft is a strong supporter of the belief that the Second Amendment conveys an individual right to bear arms.
