Default Another WIN!

Quote:
A federal judge in North Carolina today struck down that state’s emergency powers ability to ban firearms and ammunition outside the home during a declared emergency in a case filed by Bellevue’s Second Amendment Foundation, and it should send a signal to Washington State, where a similar emergency power exists.

Most interesting is that District Judge Malcolm J. Howard, senior United States district judge for the Eastern District of North Carolina, subjected the state statute to “strict scrutiny,” the highest level of review when a constitutional challenge is made against a law. This appears to subject laws that limit carry outside the home to strict constitutional scrutiny. However, right now, that only applies to the eastern district of North Carolina, where the ruling was handed down, but federal courts pay attention to one another.
