This was published in the November issue of various NRA magazines.

It clearly shows that a single vote on the Supreme Court could result in our Second Amendment Rights being restricted to single shot pistols in the home coupled with outrageous licensing and registration fees and paperwork.

Well, it was plain to see that if given ANY leeway in enforcement of this ruling, and that if no penalties to any agency or entity in this enforcement were to not comply with the ruling...

Nothing much is going to happen to correct this issue anytime soon...

All in the name of NOT rocking the boat and upsetting the liberal progressives in this country...

I look at it this way...You do not have to live in D.C., it is a small place surrounded by some fairly amiable states that do respect and understand the issues of individual, unalienable rights of its citizens...If you work there, unfortunately you take your chances...I don’t like those odds for myself and for others in that situation...

IIRC, when the decision came to a 5-4 split, that, to me, was NOT a resounding victory in my opinion...

Here it is a while later, and we still have problems implementing and enforcing the ruling...

I say it is a victory for the opposition...

Bottom line: I and many others still have our weapons...And if it ever came down to an outright ban and confiscation...

There are going to be a whole gaggle of people very unhappy trying to pick up any appreciable amount of our bang-sticks...

That will be a fact...

>FAIRFAX, Va. --(Ammoland.com)- In a split ruling in an ongoing NRA-supported case challenging the restrictive gun laws established by the Washington D.C. government in defiance of the Supreme Court’s 2008 Heller decision, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit has upheld a number of highly restrictive gun laws.

Apparently to the COA in the District of Columbia it is....

I’m bored with this judicial dithering about a clear, concise, simple Constitutional ammendment. I despise this constant attempt to get around its simple meaning by a bunch of leftists who have no place being on the bench at all.

I am, however, ready to SHOOT—if necessary to preserve my (our) rights.

A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks. Thomas Jefferson

To say Heller wasn’t a victory because it didn’t end the war against guns, is like saying Midway wasn’t a victory because the Japanese still had a navy. Heller was a legal turning point. The gun grabbers and no longer dismiss the 2A as an irrelevant anachronism, or only applying to state milita. Just because there are still battles ahead doesn’t make it any less a huge victory.

Since Heller and McDonald, the lower, Liberal courts have been giving Heller the finger and laughing at SCOTUS. Because Liberals hate Heller they have no intention of enforcing it. Obama has already said he plans to rule by decree.
