2nd Amendment

A quick note about the 2nd Amendment to the US Constitution; this article in the Washington Post discusses the implications of the Supreme Court decision DC v Heller (the first time the Supreme Court had decided on guns - it said that US citizens could have a gun) but then says that the gun lobby are not having it all their own way. The right to a gun is not all-encompassing; Lower courts are not giving the gun lobby carte-blanche to have guns wherever it likes.
