When the Supreme Court strikes down gun laws what effect will it have on DC?

So I can only buy a gun that’s less than 6 weeks old?

Cool! I LOVE buying new guns! And it’ll be great for the industry too!

Gorsuch’s patron is rightwing billionaire Phil Anschutz.
Scalia died at a billionaire-funded gun junket, and Koch billionaires gave money to GMU to name a law school after him.
Roberts hobnobs with the billionaire-funded Fed Soc, which pulls in money from both Koch billionaires and Heritage billionaires.
Alito: same.
Amy Barrett was a little-noticed law prof, a radical at a conservative Christian law school, who got her first seat from Trump and her second seat from Trump too, both backed by billionaire-funded ads through JCN.
Kavanaugh: billionaires at Fed Soc, billionaires through JCN.

Is it any wonder this SCOTUS decides for billionaires 90% of the time?

These decisions put my kids at risk. And these mediocrities do it for power and to help GOP donors. It’s disgusting and un-American.

“These decisions put my kids at risk.”

Sorry. This is an emotionalist, phobic reaction. Lawful firearm ownership and use makes people safer, unless they are criminals. The Supreme Court did not invent anything. You need to stop getting your information from anti-gun fear porn sites and do some actual research. The individual right to bear arms has a long foundation.

The most dangerous thing in your neighborhood is cars. The next mist dangerous in swing pools. I bet you aren't lobbying to make those illegal are you? I wonder why.

Actually, the most dangerous thing in most neighborhoods are women’s male partners.

But nationally gun deaths are running about 39k per year and car accident deaths about 38k per year. So guns are more dangerous, particularly considering that most Americans never see a gun in their lifetime out of a holster on a LEO while the average American drives about 25 miles per day.

Your political argumentation could use some work.

Any decision the Supreme Court makes will have basically zero effect on DC.

You think the white-show lawyers, the hill staffers, the nonprofit workers, the association execs will all of a sudden say "well it's easier to buy a gun now, so despite 90% of us being hardcore democrats who support gun control we're all going to start carrying six shooters to work like it's the wild west!"

No, a handful of people might buy guns to keep in their homes, which will most likely never be used since home invasions while the residents are present are insanely rare, but you won't see any noticeable difference.

You won't even see gun shops open in DC. The insurance and risk of opening them up NE/SE will be way too high to be profitable, and the NIMBYs in NW will make sure they never get a permit.

Great. If siding with billionaires allows me to protect myself, I’m all for it.

Except the fact that your teenage son is 8x more likely to put that gun in his own mouth & kill himself, than my kid who doesn't have a gun in his home.

Well, with the ocean of guns being sold to everyone who comes along, without regard to age, criminal history, nefarious intent or anything else but cash in the barrel (at least according to DCUM), your sin should have no trouble getting one. End sarcasm.

And scare-images aside, the idea that the mere presence of a firearm somehow turns mentally stable people insane and drives them to suicide is frankly preposterous. There are many ways to commit suicide, and suicides happen all over the place. I get that you’re afraid of guns, even though they are inanimate objects, that you’re unwilling to learn anything about them that would relieve your emotionalist, symbolic fear, and that you’d never even consider actually learning to use a firearm safely and well and enjoying the satisfaction of doing that. I really get it. I feel the same way about chain saws. But I don’t think that gives me the right to control the lives of people who understand chain saws and know how to use them safely.

But your kid is still dead, while mine is alive. Suicide attempts with firearms are many magnitudes more likely to be "successful," than other forms of suicide. Of course, you knew that.

But at least you stood up for a principle? Congrats for pwning me, while burying your relative.

If you bothered to read the parts of the post that you don’t like, I assure you that any kid who really wants a firearm can get one. That part wasn’t 100% sarcasm. As for likelihood of success, driving a car into a highway abutment, jumping off a bridge and several other things I can think of but would prefer not to detail are mighty “effective.” As previously noted, the idea that firearms are somehow magical instruments of certain death is just more propaganda. People were killing themselves long before firearms showed up and have continued to do so with disturbing regularity all over the world since, including where firearms are generally available.

As for “my kid” and “your kid,” your personalization of the issue is extremely uncivil at the least and quite frankly disturbing.
Fantasizing about the deaths of particular individuals because you disagree with someone else’s political views isn’t something stable people do. Morbid reflection of that nature is a bad way to spend your time.

I easily got a permit to carry in DC. But I can’t get one in my home state of Maryland.

Hopefully this case will bring an end to that, and I can enjoy the same right to self protection in MD that I now have in DC and 46 other states.

Sorry but I hope you do not get "the right to self protection" as you define it.

The right to self defense is a natural right, not something granted by the State.
