Re: DC mandatory gun registration

There is hope though for D.C. gun owners. Dick Heller, the lead plaintiff in the 2008 case, District of Columbia v. Heller, which overturned the district’s ban on handguns, has filed another lawsuit with the help of his attorneys arguing that new registration requirement violates one’s constitutional rights to keep and bear arms.

“These burdensome requirements appear calculated to discourage persons from registering firearms at all and, for those who do so, to snare them with expiration and re-registration deadlines that, if missed, would turn them into criminals,” states the 50-page brief that was filed in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia last week.
