Pelosi Says D.C. Could Continue Gun Regulation
@ 12:29 pm by Andy Barr

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) says that despite the Supreme Court decision to strike down its gun ban, the District of Columbia will still be able to regulate firearms.

"I think it still allows the District of Columbia to come forward with a law that’s less pervasive," Pelosi said at her weekly briefing Thursday. "I think the court left a lot of room to run in terms of concealed weapons and guns near schools."

Of course the SCOTUS decision allows regulation (that was clearly stated in the decision). What it doesn't allow is an outright ban.
 
Well.... Duh!

Yeah, D.C. can still implement some firearms regulation. I don't think anybody ever doubted that.

Fenty and his "ban them all" ( or even some of 'em ) thinking are gonna have to go, however. :D

Denial is not a river in Egypt.

She's probably going to try to get some crap like "no guns within a mile of a school or church" or something like that.

We've already got 20,000 gun laws - maybe she can try for 40,000?
 
NOW THEREFORE, In the interest of brotherly love, peace, friendship, self-promotion, political grandstanding, and all that, I TALIV, Prince and Grand Master of the Sovereign Military Hospitaller Order of St Adrian of Nicomedia, Patron saint of Arms Dealers, of Cookeville, of Algood and of Baxter, Most Humble Guardian of the Poor of Jesus Christ, Do hereby Proclaim:

sadly, the decision does seem to say regulation, including requiring licensing is acceptable infringement. I would not be surprised to see the dems try to push through a bill requiring licensing of all "assault weapons" instead of a repeat of the AWB. i.e. before obama's term is over, you may have to purchase a $200 stamp from the ATF to get an AR15 with a pistol grip and 30 rnd mag.
 
She just squandered how much of DC's money fighting this all the way to the Supreme Court so who doesn't think that she's going to try to get the best consolation prize she can out of the debacle? She'll push just as far as she thinks she can.
 
Pelosi is an idiot. And - doesn't even look good in a skirt.
She wanted her power - now has it and all she does is run her s&*k hole.

We get what we get when we let them in by not voting them out.
 
What a crushing victory for us!

That's all the antis have. "Well, um, uh, you can't carry in schools." Nancy, the issue was not carrying guns, only keeping pistols in one's home.

This response shows their fear of what is coming. Read Justice Beyer (a smart individual but a flaming socialist) in Heller. I'll guarantee you at the last cocktail party at Nancy's Georgetown brownstone that Beyer was telling her about how big the "gunnies" (as we are called out there) are going to win over the next few years.
