Rudy Giuliani and Michael Bloomberg are going to be greatly disappointed to hear this.FedGov is going to be really pissed.
I predict no appeal, and that it will be completely ignored.
I pray that I'm wrong.

Um, this WAS the appeal...next step, en banc hearing, assuming DC appeals the appelate court ruling.
If they don't, DC gun law just went out the window.
Not sure what that means, yet.

Decision just hit the Top News screen on Bloomberg. MSM should be all over it soon.

This is gigantic if upheld!! We have waited generations for a ruling like this.
To: unixfox
Yes, the republican party needs to be more accessible to the moderates. We need to adopt the policies of the democrats in order to beat them! If we don't, hillary will win and so will osama bin laden!!
I say we adopt the DNC platform on everything but the war and raising taxes. But we don't promise to cut taxes, we just promise not to raise them too much. It will be certain victory!
(phew, channeling a RINO suporter is strenuous work!)

Dear Unixfox:
Umm...One of the risks of communicating via blog or forum is that sarcasm is often missed. I think flashbunny was being sarcastic, because he/she seems to be as much as a right wing/second amendment/limited government nut as the rest of us.

Does that mean that there is no free speech right, freedom of religion, right to assmeble, etc in DC? Does the Constititution not apply there? hmm...Good questions.

Thanks for the highlight.
That's huge.
To: zendari
Thanks for the heads up on the appointments.
As would be expected, the dissent was by the Bush'41 appointee with the Reagan and Bush'43 reading the Constitution.
I will be surprised if the USSC consents to review this decision. It is too clear that anything they say would make such solid precedent that it would be extremely difficult to mollify it later.

Not sure what that means, yet.I should have been more specific. What I meant, was that this will not be appealed to the supreme Court.
See US v. Dalton and US v. Rock Island Armory for two examples where FedGov was slapped down hard on the second amendment and did not appeal so it would not be a nationwide precident. Both cases essentially invalidated the 1934, 1968, and 1986 Gun Control Acts.
