Don’t Be Too Happy about the Defeat of the Unconstitutional D.C. Gun Laws

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia finally ruled that several D.C. anti-gun laws were unconstitutional.

The case covered three separate District of Columbia laws:

• A law that prevents handgun registration
• A law that requires rifles and shotguns to be either disassembled or disabled when being stored
• A law that requires a permit to carry a gun in your own home

Here’s the bad news:

• The fascist government weasels are appealing the verdict and they will continue to enforce their unconstitutional laws during the appeal.
• The verdict does not affect laws that governs concealed carry permits outside the home.
• The anti-Constitution bureaucrats are still allowed to place “reasonable restrictions” on the exercise of a citizens Constitutional rights. Reasonable restrictions such as “to get a permit to carry a gun in your own home, you have to attend a year long training course held by the government and the next one is scheduled for 2092.”
• Due to extremely successful media manipulation, the Democrats are rising in power. Expect a series of new anti-gun laws to be enacted over the next six years. Even if this was good news, it’s likely to be the last good news you hear for a long long time.
