Last week the
federal 7th Circuit Court of Appeals held that the Second Amendment
offers zero protection against the draconian gun control laws
currently in place in Chicago and Oak Park, Illinois. But as
Associate Editor Damon W. Root writes, the 7th Circuit got it
wrong. Gun rights deserve the same respect as the rest of the Bill
of Rights. The Supreme Court should take this opportunity to fully
restore the Second Amendment to its rightful place in our
constitutional system.
