Had the district court complied with Heller, it would have found the D.C. registration law in violation of the Second Amendment because the onerous and intrusive registration requirements undermines the primary purposes of the right to keep and bear arms — to resist tyranny and to defend self, family and property. Further, by discriminating among private citizenry and conferring special privileges upon government officials and the wealthy and politically powerful, the D.C. law protects only friends of the government, undermining a right that belongs to all of “the people.” [More]GOA files a "friends" brief of its own in "Heller II."
Hey, these things cost money.
I hear all kinds of complaints against incessant NRA fundraising, and the way SAF goes about it, and we just saw JPFO go through a transition due to lack of funds that has bitterly polarized gun owners, so I'm sure there's a good reason for letting GOA do this on its own without lifting a finger to help.
Besides, we can always just join with our friends and fight a revolution, right?
Why do I suddenly feel like some music would be nice right about now...?
