A New Shot at History (Briji-llient!)


A New Shot at History -

Washington, DC has had a handgun ban for the past 31 years, and is now the scene of the latest gun control debate. Next spring, the Supreme Court will hear a case that could open the Second Amendment to reinterpretation. Dick Heller, a federal security guard who carries a gun at his job, is challenging the city to be able to have a gun at his home in a once-rough DC neighborhood. The authors choose a peculiar commentator for the article, a former drug dealer who backs their light argument against the ban.
