As posted on the other forum with permission by a friend of mine.
The usually liberal 9th circuit court of appeals has made a decision in a concluded case concerning holding a gun show at a fairgrounds.
"The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in California has ruled that the 2nd Amendment right to keep and bear arms is "deeply rooted in this nation's history and tradition" and long has been regarded as the "true palladium of liberty," so it therefore must be applied against state and local government weapon restrictions as well as federal gun limits. "
Whats important here is that the court recognized that the amendment applies likewise to the states and local governments. Called incorporation it already applies to the other Bill of rights amendments. But until this point in time the courts have never ruled on the states and cities. This will go thru the further appeals process I hope it reaches the SCUS before BO can fill it with God knows what.
