Gun ban decision upheld

Is the tide turning in gun control cases?

From the NRA:
On Tuesday, the full U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. circuit, declined to review the decision in Parker v. District of Columbia--the case in March that upheld the Second Amendment as an individual right and struck down Washington, D.C.'s handgun ban. The decision not to review the case means that an earlier ruling by the three-judge panel will stand.

This is a very important decision for the right to keep and bear arms. I have never understood why we should keep law-abiding citizens in high crime areas from being able to defend themselves.
