| The District of Columbia Court of Appeals on Thursday struck down Washington, D.C.’s ban on “gun magazines that contain more than 10 bullets,” holding that it is unconstitutional because “large-capacity magazines ‘are arms in common and ubiquitous use’” and there is a “lack of ‘history or tradition’ of any blanket prohibition on them,” according to The New York Times. “The District of Columbia could appeal the ruling to the Supreme Court, or ask that a larger panel from the local appeals court reconsider it.” |
