NRA to file lawsuits against cities with handgun bans.
Go git'em, guys!

:headbang:

The NRA will file lawsuits in San Francisco, Chicago and several of its suburbs challenging handgun restrictions there based on Thursday's outcome.

Unfortunately though... this could easily take another 3-5 years (or longer), to resolve.

1. Not a fan of NRA (because of -how- they do things, not the things themselves)
I absolutely support these particular efforts.

2. If cities don't want guns, why don't they just ban bullets?
I don't see a word in the Constitution about bullets. Let them have their guns.

3. Because doing an end-run on the Constitution is
a really bad idea.
