    Court Rejects D.C.'s En Banc Request

    Court Rejects D.C.'s En Banc Request: 'Good Reason' for Concealed Carry Remains Unconstitutional. Very big win today for DC residents, we are hoping DC files a petition for a writ of certiorari before the Supreme Court. If SCOTUS rules in our favor all states that have G&S becoming Shall Issue.

    Update:

    'Concealed carry' ruling could help put gun issue on Supreme Court agenda

    In a win for gun rights activists, a federal appeals court on Thursday let stand another court’s ruling that it was unconstitutional for Washington, D.C.’s local government to require licensed gun owners to provide a “good reason” for legally carrying a concealed weapon in the nation’s capital city.

    The ruling potentially sets the matter on a path to the U.S. Supreme Court, because other federal courts have reached varying decisions in similar cases, the Washington Times reported.

    Congrats! I'm from the opposite coast, but anything that promotes the spread of Shall Issue anywhere is good news EVERYWHERE, especially if it helps force Nonresident Shall Issue or more preferably Recognition/Reciprocity.

    If it moves onto SCOTUS, I am worried about roberts and kennedy. We have obamacare because roberts didn't have the balls to do what is right.

    One would imagine, Jersey, NY, MD and other socialist states are burning up the phone, requesting DC not to file a petition.

    Very interesting times.

    Excellent point, PD. Right now, the Court is four Avowed Communists, two switch-hitting Lite Beer Dems and three solid Conservative/Libertarian Spectrum sorts, and we don't WANT the Supremes anywhere NEAR gun issues until we have at least five reliably pro-gun votes.

    As I've snarked, my girlfriend has a bigger pair o' nuts than Roberts, Kennedy and the rest of the Rockefeller Wing combined--I know, because I'm the one who pulled two exceptionally large steel hex-nuts out of the toolbox and GAVE 'em to her. (Though I'm surprised the Bitchy Little Girls at State Dept. DDTC haven't started pissing their frilly pink panties trying to call THAT an "ITAR Violation"...)
