Default Handgun registrations already being rejected in D.C.

Dick Heller, who successfully sued to have Washington, D.C.'s handgun ban overturned, was among the first people in line to get a handgun registered for the first time in 32 years in the District. Here's what happened.

WUSA9.com | Washington, DC | DC Rejects Handgun Application

I've said it before and I'll say it again. The Heller ruling did not make D.C. any less inhospitable for gun owners, and D.C. leaders' attempts to make the gun laws as strict as possible while still being in conformity with the Court ruling are evidence of that. D.C. still has America's worst gun laws.

Can't say I'm all that suprised. The ant-guners got their talons in DC and they don't want to let go. It's going to take a civil rights case to get DC to obey the law.

I'm sure he didn't say "clip" for a handgun.

And I suppose a revolver is a minigun...??

I think this guy is a bottom feeder.

A Small quote, I'm sure it's time to use in D.C.:

"When the government is no longer, for and by the people, then the people shall rise up and overthrow the government"

Looks like it's time.

Since Heller applied to license a revolver which led to the decision by Scotus, and he now tried to register a 1911, I'm willing to bet this was planned on the part of Mr Heller and his representatives at Gura Levy.

I'm assuming we're about to see some more litigation (contempt of SCOTUS?) filed. Washington D.C. local government may end up being the best friend gun rights advocates have had in a very long time.
