Dick Anthony Heller, who successfully challenged the District’s handgun ban in a landmark Supreme Court decision, is again suing the District of Columbia, LL has learned.
According to a complaint obtained by LL, Heller, along with co-plaintiffs Absalom M. Jordan Jr., and Amy McVey, are taking particular aim at the effective ban of semiautomatic pistols by the District’s gun regulations, which in essence ban all semiautomatic weapons as "machine guns."
...
The suit asks the court to issue injunctions that would (a) allow semiautomatic weapons that hold fewer than 12 rounds, (b) order the District to register handguns without a ballistics test, and (c) order the District not to enforce the "reasonably perceived threat" part of the handgun law.http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/blogs/citydesk/2008/07/28/breaking-heller-files-new-gun-case-takes-aim-at-semiauto-ban/Next verse, same as the first...!
