As a postscript to my earlier posting regarding the overturning of the DC Gun Ban by the DC Appeals Court, Mayor Fenty has immediately released a statement condemning the verdict saying that “District residents deserve every protection afforded to them under District law.” Personally, I’m surprised that that is the language that he would use to offer his condemnation, as I think that District residents ought to deserve every protection afforded to them, well, under the Constitution of the United States of America, the Laws of these United States, as well as those granted to them under District law. But, that might just be me.
