Significant Second Amendment victory
For the first time, as far as I can tell, a federal court has specifically invalidated a state law on the basis that the Second Amendment word "bear" means possession outside the home. It's amazing how long it has taken for common sense and respect for the Constitution to take hold. See the District Judge's opinion striking down a portion of Maryland law requiring that applicants for a concealed carry permit show a "good and substantial reason" to qualify for the permit. My congratulations to Judge Legg for having the courage to stand up for the Bill of Rights.
