See above.ok....now will someone break this down for us... what does it mean in the end for us in MD? What is the next step for us?
Yeah, everyone is in here chearleading, but I do not see this as a win, I see it as a complete punt. I understand that they just now gave the lower court a mandate that says "you have to allow some ownership, but we will not give you a standard within which you can work."
It's a failed opportunity to actually enforce the rule of law, and just one more nail in the coffin of freedom.
The right to keep
and bear arms must be regarded as a substantive guarantee, not a
prohibition that could be ignored so long as the States legislated inan evenhanded manner.
Thinking that could be a basis for attacking arbitrary "may issue" state laws (like MD) on CCW. Could also be used to attack the practice of "allowed gun lists" and possibly executive orders banning importation.
