Supreme Court should recognize Second Amendment

The Supreme Court has agreed to hear, for the first time since 1939, a Second Amendment case, this time to arbitrate the constitutionality of individual rights to keep guns in their homes. By agreeing to review the District of Columbia’s Federal Appeals Court ruling the right to keep and bear arms is an individual one, thereby declaring unconstitutional the District of Columbia’s ban on hand guns, the court may shed light on the long standing controversy over the amendment’s meaning.
