Shot Down Again

Remember recently when a judge shot down DC's tough gun law, allowing issuance of “concealed carry” permits where they previously allowed none? Well, they tried to compensate by requiring people to “show cause” why they NEED a “concealed carry” permit, with some nameless, faceless bureaucrat having the power (which he/she usually exercised) to say, “No, your reason isn't good enough.” Which “obeys the law” but “gets around it,” as politicians are wont to do. The judge “tumbled” to that, and issued another ruling, BANNING the practice of requiring people to “show cause.” No, we haven't WON, but we have moved in the right direction. If this happened more and more often, maybe the anti-gun nuts will get the word. But I'm not holding my breath until they see reality. They aren't too bright, you know. (The Patriot Post)
