The US Supreme Court today ruled that our right to keep and bear arms
covers all 50 states, and in so doing shot down Chicago's handgun ban,
according to a Fox
News report. Governor Palin, a staunch supporter and advocate of
the Second Amendment discussed the ruling in a brief Facebook
Note and referred to a news report via Tweet.
The Supreme Court handed down an important ruling today
stating what should be obvious: that the Second Amendment, in the words
of Justice Alito writing for the court, “applies equally to the
federal government and the states.” Today’s decision in McDonald vs. City of Chicago, in conjunction
with the landmark Heller case two years ago, should leave little
doubt that our individual right to keep and bear arms applies
everywhere and is a right for everyone.
For an interesting perspective on the significance of today’s ruling,
take a look at David Rittgers’ article in National Review here.
