Click-Click, Bang-Bang

One of America's oldest laws may be reviewed soon:

The Supreme Court could announce as early as Tuesday whether it will take its first serious look at the Second Amendment in nearly 70 years in a case from D.C. City officials are trying to maintain the 31-year ban on handguns. A lower court struck down the ban as a violation of the Second Amendment rights of gun ownership.

The main issue is whether the Second Amendment protects an individual's right to own guns or instead spells out the collective right of states to maintain militias. The
individual right interpretation would permit fewer restrictions on gun ownership.



A nice way to once again make "guns" a prevailing issue for the 2008 Presidential Campaign.
