Another hat tip to LindyBill: Message 25585041 Ninth Circuit Court Extends Second Amendment Rights [Mark Hemingway] Believe it or not, the Ninth Circuit Court ruled today that the second amendment restricts the powers of state and local governments to interfere with the individual right to gun ownership. The decison even observes that the right to bear arms is "deeply rooted in this Nation's history and tradition." Notes Cato Institute's Ilya Shapiro, "I rarely get a chance to say this, but the Ninth Circuit gets it exactly right." On a related matter, I just got around to Brian Doherty's Gun Control on Trial: Inside the Supreme Court Battle Over the Second Amendment. It's a terrific accounting of the Heller case, and definitely worth reading if you're even remotely interested in gun rights. Indeed, Doherty's take on Heller is very insightful! corner.nationalreview.com
