Gun advocates say in a new federal lawsuit that D.C.’s prohibition of “ghost guns” and restrictions on the manufacturing of guns from kits are unconstitutional infringements on the Second Amendment.
The lawsuit was filed Wednesday in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia by three gun-owning residents. The plaintiffs include Dick Heller, whose challenge of the city’s longstanding handgun ban almost two decades ago led to the Supreme Court’s landmark 2008 decision affirming that the Second Amendment confers an individual right to own a gun. |

The serial number requirement in the '68 gun control act is unconstitutional.
Let's start there and work forward to eliminate that and all subsequent unconstitutional manipulations. |

TO REMEMBER |
| As an individual, I believe, very strongly, that handguns should be banned and that there should be stringent, effective control of other firearms. However, as a judge, I know full well that the question of whether handguns can be sold is a political one, not an issue of products liability law, and that this is a matter for the legislatures, not the courts. The unconventional theories advanced in this case (and others) are totally without merit, a misuse of products liability laws. — Judge Buchmeyer, Patterson v. Gesellschaft, 1206 F.Supp. 1206, 1216 (N.D. Tex. 1985) |
