Auszug -
On June 26, 2008, in District of Columbia v. Heller (PDF), the United States Supreme Court issued its first decision since 1939 interpreting the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution. The Court ruled that
the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution confers an individual right to possess a firearm for traditionally lawful purposes such as self-defense
. It also ruled that two District of Columbia provisions, one that banned handguns and one that required lawful firearms in the home to be disassembled or trigger-locked, violate this right.

Auszug -
In 2008, in District of Columbia v. Heller the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the Second Amendment protected an individual right to own guns, striking down Washington, D.C.âs law banning handgun possession in the home. However, the Heller decision also mentioned numerous types of presumptively valid gun laws, including âlaws imposing conditions and qualifications on the commercial sale of arms. Since Heller, lower courts have overwhelmingly upheld the constitutionality of a wide range of gun laws other than handgun bans.
