Yeah, if you go here you'll see that Fenty already is saying that very thing- "in the home" only and that he will ban guns outside of the home. Plus the "new process" for registering handguns that will take 21 days to setup.

Then comes all the "reasonable" regulations that I pointed out in my original post. With enough reasonable restrictions on obtaining a "permit" for registering a handgun, then the years it will take to have it go through the court system to hopefully slap them down again. Nothing has really changed with this opinion. It will just take a bit more "creative" legislation to permit, register and qualify any handgun ownership out of existence.

Did anyone actually expect the libtards to roll over and actually agree with the Second? [rhetorical question, I know]

The "right to keep and bear arms" is a fundamental right. Going armed isn't a privilege that can require a license, like driving a car on the public roads.

We can't be required to get permits to publish our opinions. What if you needed a permit to publish a newspaper or a book? To paint a picture? Civil libertarians would howl.

Nobody needs any kind of permit to exercise their right to keep and bear arms. Don't let anyone tell you so.
