“A group of gun rights advocates roared with approval as Alan Gura descended the stairs of the Supreme Court on the morning of June 26, having just learned of the high court’s decision in the landmark Second Amendment case, District of Columbia v. Heller. ‘Goodbye, gun ban!’ they chanted. Gura, whom history will remember as the lawyer who successfully argued that Americans have an individual right to keep and bear arms, smiled broadly. Goodbye, gun ban. … He hadn’t even read the Heller opinion in its entirety on Thursday, when Gura and … David Sigale, filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, seeking to strike down Chicago’s gun ban. The Second Amendment Foundation is bankrolling the litigation.” (07/02/08) Link: http://www.law.com/jsp/scm/PubArticleSCM.jsp?id=1202422704077 Filed under: 2AM News and RRND News | Report Bad Link Bookmark this post in Furl or Del.icio.us | |
