House votes to limit DC from enforcing gun laws

Rep. Thomas Massie’s (R-Ky.) amendment to the fiscal 2015 Financial Services and General Government appropriations bill passed by a vote of 241-181 and would prohibit funding to enforce its handgun ban and other gun laws.

Of course, the liberals are crying fowl, because their attempts to continue to infringe on the Second Amendment, and therefore, its citizens rights, would not be supported.  Trouble is, it won’t get past the Senate.  Good try, however.

City of Chicago Ordered to Pay NRA’s Legal Fees – Again

Fairfax, Va. – The United States District Court in the Northern District of Illinois has ordered the City of Chicago to reimburse $940,000 in legal expenses incurred by the NRA. The NRA had challenged Chicago’s ban on gun sales within city limits in Benson v. City of Chicago. The Benson case was consolidated into Illinois Association of Firearm Retailers v. City of Chicago and that case challenged five aspects of Chicago’s law: (1) the ban on any form of carriage; (2) the ban on gun stores; (3) the ban on firing ranges; (4) the ban on self-defense in garages, porches, and yards; and (5) the ban on keeping more than one gun in an operable state.

This is the second time that the City of Chicago has been ordered to reimburse legal fees in a suit sponsored by the NRA. The first was following the U. S. Supreme Court’s landmark ruling in McDonald v. City of Chicago in which Chicago was ordered to reimburse the NRA more than $600,000.
