DC gun ban case moves forward. Parker v DC below, it's now DC v Heller.
QUESTION PRESENTED
Whether the Second Amendment forbids the District of
Columbia from banning private possession of handguns
while allowing possession of rifles and shotguns.
Most commentators think the court will take the case. If it does, it is a victory for Eugene Volokh, one of the scholars who has led the modern trend to suspect that the 2nd Amendment means what it says.
