D.C.'s gun ban gets its day in court

[denton]

The odds in favor of an "individual right" ruling are pretty good, I think. The skunk at the picnic is the brief filed by the Solicitor General, favoring an individual right, but not making gun laws subject to "strict scrutiny" as other fundamental rights are. In other words, it's an individual right, but the government can do almost anything it wants to limit the right. I don't think SCOTUS will buy that, but we shall see.

Oral arguments on Tuesday, decision by about the end of June.
