Supreme Court Gun Rulings, District of Columbia v. Heller, BBC Reporting
BBC reporting on potential Supreme Court moves to relax gun laws is dismissed as shoddy, with references made to the 2008 District of Columbia v. Heller decision. The discussion covers the expiration of the 1994 Federal Assault Weapons Ban in 2004 and the unlikelihood of new legislation passing the current Congress. Historical anecdotes about Cassius Clay using a cannon for self-defense are used to illustrate the evolution of weapon laws.
