• Trigger locked
• Private gun-owners brought case to court – 2nd amendment– D.C. said it only applied to militias and not private
ownership • United States Court of Appeals Disagreed
![Page 20: ANNELISE BUCK AND ROSE FRIEL Right to Keep and Bear Arms](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56649e895503460f94b8da03/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Issue
Defendant argument: Does not apply to D.C. because it is not a state D.C. legislation only monitors rather than prohibits
gun-ownership
Whether the 2nd amendment only applies to those who are members of the military

constitutions

John Paul StevensJohn Paul Stevens Stephen BreyerStephen Breyer
Argued it only protects rights of those who are part of a “well-regulated militia”
Despite the legality of other purposes
Agreed with Stevens
Added even if lawful possesion Regulations would
need to be unreasonable or inappropriate
D.C. ruling was neither
The Justices’ Split
