Fingon Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court ruled Thursday that Americans have a right to own guns for self-defense and hunting, the justices' first major pronouncement on gun rights in U.S. history. The court's 5-4 ruling struck down the District of Columbia's 32-year-old ban on handguns as incompatible with gun rights under the Second Amendment. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080626/ap_on_..._co/scotus_guns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
