The United States Supreme Court rules in favour of the Second Amendment to the Constitution of the United States.

In an historic landmark ruling, D.C. -v- Heller, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that the Second Amendment, which gives the Right to Keep and bear arms, is NOT dependent on being a member of an organised militia such as the National Guard. Rather, it is an individual right held by the ordinary law abiding upright citizen. This is the view that the NRA of America has been advocating for years.
