I didn't know the case by name either. Here's my $.02

1. I don't own a gun and I probably won't ever.
2. I support the constitutional right of citizens to bear arms.
3. I'm quite happy they overturned the DC law. Hopefully more
ridiculous laws will go down as well..
4. There are extremely few cases where allowing sane citizens to own
firearms does any harm, and conversely an armed citizenry is a great
deterrent to crime..
5. The ridiculous laws banning firearms have done nothing to diminish
the number of scumbags who use firearms in violent crimes, and they
never will.
6. I'm not especially fond of the nanny state.
