Re: The Power of the SCOTUS III: Roberts' Rules of Order
A three-judge panel of the Seventh U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals applies 2008 SCOTUS ruling in District of Columbia v. Heller (that the amendment means it when it says that "the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed") to State of Illinois. In Moore v. Madigan, the judges gave the Legislature in Springfield 180 days "to craft a new gun law that will impose reasonable limitations, consistent with the public safety and the Second Amendment . . ., on the carrying of guns in public."
