Latest on D.C. gun laws

Although the changes in D.C. law are significant, they still reflect an opposition to home ownership of handguns for defensive purposes which is protected by the Second Amendment. Both D.C. and Chicago continue to bob and weave and alter their laws to stay one step ahead of litigation. How foolish of us to think that the Bill of Rights is part of the supreme law of the land, that public officials honor their oaths to support and defend the constitution, and that they recognize the long-established authority of the Supreme Court to strike down state and federal laws.

D.C. thumbs its nose at the Supreme Court and Second Amendment.

The Constitution is the supreme law of the land. The U.S. Supreme Court has the final say on the meaning of the Constitution. All public officials take an oath to support and defend the Constitution. Chicago thumbed it's nose at the U.S. Supreme Court's 2nd Amendment decision in McDonald. D.C has done likewise with regard to Heller with it's new gun control scheme.
