D.C. Gun Ban Ruled Unconstitutional, Violates Individual Right To Own A Gun
Friday, March 09, 2007
This week, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the Second Amendment is an individual right and concluded that the District of Columbia’s ban on guns in the home is unconstitutional. According to the majority opinion, "[T]he phrase 'the right of the people'...leads us to conclude that the right in question is individual." Also, earlier this week, Second Amendment supporters on Capitol Hill introduced H.R. 1399 - the "District of Columbia Personal Protection Act."
In ruling on the D.C. gun ban case, the majority opinion of the Circuit Court held as follows:
"To summarize, we conclude that the Second Amendment protects an individual right to keep and bear arms. That right existed prior to the formation of the new government under the Constitution and was premised on the private use of arms for activities such as hunting and self-defense, the latter being understood as resistance to either private lawlessness or the depredations of a tyrannical government (or a threat from abroad). In addition, the right to keep and bear arms had the important and salutary civic purpose of helping to preserve the citizen militia. The civic purpose was also a political expedient for the Federalists in the First Congress as it served, in part, to placate their Anti-federalist opponents. The individual right facilitated militia service by ensuring that citizens would not be barred from keeping the arms they would need when called forth for militia duty. Despite the importance of the Second Amendment's civic purpose, however, the activities it protects are not limited to militia service, nor is an individual's enjoyment of the right contingent upon his or her continued or intermittent enrollment in the militia."
I'm not really sure why some (again I repeat some) European folks take it so personally that Americans can carry guns and that we don't have nationalized healthcare to the extent that Europeans do. I mean, I don't make threads insulting European folks in general because they have don't have guns or do have nationalized healthcare (because that'd be just as ridiculous and pointless).

In 2005/06 there were 766 offences initially recorded as homicide by the police in England and Wales (including the 52 victims of the 7 July 2005 London bombings),[15] a rate of 1.4 per 100,000 of population. Only 50 (6.6%) were committed with firearms, one being with an air weapon.[16] The homicide rate for London was 2.4 per 100,000 in the same year (1.7 when excluding the 7 July bombings).[17]
By comparison, 5.5 murders per 100,000 of population were reported by police in the United States in 2000, of which 70% involved the use of firearms (75% of which were illegally obtained).[18] New York City, with a population size similar to London and similar firearms laws with almost all firearms prohibited to normal citizens (over 7 million residents), reported 6.9 murders per 100,000 people in 2004.[19]
5.5 murders per 100,000 of population...
3.85 murders per 100,000 of population involving the use of firearms
0.9625 murders per 100,000 of population involving legally obtained firearms.
4.5375 murders per 100,000 of population involving something other than legally obtained firearms.
Arming properly trained teachers would be a good start.
A good start? What, for a computer game? I can see it, 'Teachers with Guns!'
Honestly, I know you're serious but if it ever came to that maybe it'd be time to just outlaw guns. Arming teachers in order to protect some pointless amendment and those who like to shoot shit is a load of utter bollocks.

and why do other countries come to the us when they have complicated medical problems? it only proves that socialized medicine breeds sub-standard medicine. the public medical system in the us sparks competition and thus great strides in medicine.
the european gun issue is simple. they are subjects; americans are citizens.
why would you start a thread insulting my nations Healthcare??? its awesomeness encapsulated.. i mean we dont have gunshot victims clogging up the beds for a start
You're right, I wouldn't. One, I don't know much about it...second, nationalized healthcare in Scotland do not affect me any more than Scotland's tax rates, therefore I don't get too excited one way or another. Ya'll seem fine with it, so good on ya for that.
As far as your second comment, it is my opinion that guns don't kill anymore than a knife or baseball kills someone. It's the user who does. And before you make the comment that a gun's only use is to kill, I'll tell you that a buddy of mine enjoys target practice as a hobby, and has never killed a person or animal in his life. And no, he's not deranged and no he's not paranoid.
So yeah. Debate is cool but just insulting a whole nation because you disagree with their gunlaws doesn't add anything to the debate, than to give chuckle to fellow countrymen who agree with you.

Outlawing guns will just make this type of tradgedy more common. Criminals will still get guns and everyone else will be unarmed.
that's a mature approach. so what have the scotts contributed to the world besides drunk drivers? anything?
Scotts? what are they???

Sounds like a fucking shit idea to me. Your Vice President, supposedly one of great supremacy, is a rubbish shot. America would be an endless grave. Although, the current gun-freedom isn't counteracting that anyway so I guess I'll side with ye on that one Cletus.
