Second Amendment rights upheld

The Supreme Court struck down DC's handgun ban today.

I'd like to make a prediction. There will be all kinds of wailing about how our cities will become engulfed in a bloodbath now (that wasn't the prediction; it's too easy). However, I think there will now be less gun violence in these cities than now. It's not like gun bans did anything anyway, other than keep them out of the hands of law-abiding citizens who will now be able to defend themselves.

On the other hand, there are still laws preventing felons and others from buying guns, so the gangbangers will still buy theirs on the black market so they can shoot each other.

One other thing: you agree or disagree with the effect of the ruling, but it's hard to argue with the clear meaning of the 2nd Amendment. If you don't like it, have it repealed through another amendment.
