Licensed handgun carry now legal in District of Columbia: Palmer v. DCBy David Kopel July 28 at 4:04 AM The District Court did not issue a stay, but the D.C. Attorney General’s Office announced on Sunday that it would seek a stay. As reported by the Washington Post, D.C. Metropolitan Police Chief Cathy Lanier has approved an order which allows District residents to carry a handgun IF AND ONLY IF the handgun has been properly registered with the District Police, pursuant to the District’s handgun registration ordinance. What about non-residents? According to the Post article, “Lanier’s instructions to police also said that residents of other jurisdictions without felony records would not be charged under the ban on carrying pistols.” www.washingtonpost.com/news/volokh-conspiracy/wp/2014/07/28/licensed-handgun-carry-now-legal-in-district-of-columbia-palmer-v-dc/

Total B.S. if its unconstitutional it should fall IMMEDIATELY! The last time I looked through the Constitution I must have missed the section allowing for 'grace periods' while infringing on someones Rights... Judge Puts Hold on D.C.

DC: Alan Gura on Stay and/or Appeal of Palmer v. D.C.Tuesday, July 29, 2014 There have been rumors flying about on what Alan Gura has agreed to on a stay on the Palmer v. D.C. case. These were fueled in part by the wording in the District's request for a stay, which originally claimed that it was unopposed. According to Alan Gura on his blog, that is not the case: gunwatch.blogspot.com/2014/07/dc-alan-gura-on-stay-andor-appeal-of.html
