Washington DC Handgun Carry Ban Struck Down

BREAKING -- VICTORY IN PALMER v. DC -- DC HANDGUN CARRY BAN STRUCK DOWN http://t.co/3EWSYkYt1v
— Alan Gura (@alangura) July 26, 2014

From the opinion:

In light of Heller, McDonald, and their progeny, there is no longer any basis on which this Court can conclude that the District of Columbia’s total ban on the public carrying of ready-to-use handguns outside the home is constitutional under any level of scrutiny. Therefore, the Court finds that the District of Columbia’s complete ban on the carrying of handguns in public is unconstitutional.

More here. Congratulations to Alan Gura and the plaintiffs.
