The Left is always willing to cite Supreme Court cases and demand that the states and the people abide by the high court’s decisions. Unless, of course, the decisions are contrary to the leftist ideology, in which case there will be an endless parade of liberal legislators creating new laws to tell the people what they can and cannot do, even when it directly contradicts a Supreme Court ruling. They always think they know better and are more than willing to ignore settled case law if it suits their liberal agenda.
This is glaringly obvious when it comes to gun laws that various cities and states impose on citizens in response to violence that they are unable to control in their jurisdictions. In places such as Los Angeles, California, Washington D.C., and Chicago, Illinois, it is clear that criminal activity is out of control, in spite of the fact that these cities have some of the most draconian anti-gun laws on the books. But with criminals running wild, and citizens cowering in their homes and staying far away from downtown areas because the criminals having free reign, what is the automatic reaction of liberals and left leaning politicians? Why, taking away guns from law-abiding citizens!
In 2008, a case entitled District of Columbia v. Heller finally reached the Supreme Court, and a decision was handed down that many thought would put an end to the constant squabbling over who had the right to own a gun, and what the terms for such ownership were. It turns out that certain cities and states have decided to completely ignore that ruling and to institute laws that essentially bar ownership of guns within their jurisdiction. It is outrageous, and it must stop!

Russell Crow, you are absolutely right! I have been saying the same thing for years! Apparently there a great many liberal Democrats who are sadly lacking in basic reading comprehension skills!
The Supreme Court has already ruled that it is.
The 2nd ammendment is what it is. Leave it alone. Stop trying to take the guns.
Communism big time.
Oh they are pulling at every link on the chain of freedom.. This is a power grab by the government to keep us instep to whatever they say.. With 80million of us with guns, we are less vulnerable to a complete takeover from a corrupt administration… This guy is getting a little paranoid. He can’t complete his mission with us gun owners pointing back
