SAS THRILLED BY SUPREME COURT NEWS
Second Amendment Sisters is extremely happy at the
prospect of the Supreme Court review of the 1975 Washington, D.C.
gun law. In our nation’s capitol for three decades all handguns
have been illegal unless they had been registered before the law
took effect. Legal firearms must be kept unloaded and disassembled
or, if assembled, disabled by some means. Originally, movement of
firearms was allowed only on the owner’s property, but that was
amended to prohibit even movement from room to room on the owner’s
property.
This
case is about only the right of an individual to keep a workable
firearm in his domicile. It is not about carrying a firearm
either concealed on openly in the streets of the city. It is simply
asking to have the means to protect themselves and their families
from intruders in their home.
Self defense is a basic human right™. We have a right
to life; we have a right to defend that life and the lives of those
around us; we have a right to the means to do so. Without the means
to defend one’s life, one has no effective right to life.
This is a great opportunity for the Supreme Court
to acknowledge the inherent individual right to keep and bear arms.
We are confident that the Court will rule that human rights are
not limited by geography.
Second Amendment Sisters is a grassroots organization
dedicated to preserving the individual basic human right to self-defense.
