Heller has not only leveled the playing field for defenders of the Second, it has moved it entirely. The old one was home field for the gun controllers. The new playground makes the gun rights advocates the home team.

SNOWFLAKES IN HELL BLOG - Because It'll Be a Cold Day in Hell Before We Surrender the Second Amendment

Morton Grove has joined Wilamette in suspending its gun ban.

Morton Grove Mayor Richard Krier said the village would comply with the law.

The Heller dominoes are falling. One thing I hadn't considered in all of this is that many of these Chicago suburbs have far less financial resources than Mayor Daley has at his disposal. These towns may have been happy to maintain handgun bans as a symbolic gesture, as "an expression of the kind of community we want to be." But when it comes to actually spending tax dollars to fight a case in federal court, potentially all the way to the United States Supreme Court, I think they might just decide to fold rather than fight.
