Shameless Plug: The Heller High Watermark

I’ve said before magazines are poor places for developing stories — the time between events and publication may be months, and assumptions may be proven wrong in the interim.

Nonetheless, we’d be remiss if we didn’t highlight the June 26 Supreme Court ruling in District of Columbia v Heller, wherein the majority held “The Second Amendment protects an individual right to possess a firearm unconnected with service in a militia …”

That’s the first time they’ve so ruled, and as such, it’s huge. But as with all things, read the fine print.

"The Heller High Watermark," dealing with this summer's Supreme Court Second Amendment ruling, is my Rights Watch column for the October 2008 (that does not seem right!!!) issue of GUNS Magazine, on sale now at judicious newsstands throughout the Republic.
