\"D.C.<\/a>

The D.C. city council, which pushed through the restrictive ‘may-issue’ gun law back in 2014. (Photo: ABC 7<\/em>)<\/p><\/div>\n

The District of Columbia is fighting tooth and nail to keep its “good reason” requirement for obtaining a concealed carry permit on the books.<\/p>\n

The City, in the case of Wrenn v. District of Columbia<\/em><\/a>, filed an appeal last week asking the entire U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia to review a ruling by a three-judge panel <\/a>from the same court that struck down the requirement back in July.<\/p>\n

The city’s request for an en banc review<\/a> was no surprise. \u00a0The anti-gunners that run D.C. love the “good reason” requirement because it is a convenient way for police to deny Joe Public a carry permit.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Second Amendment Foundation expected the City of Washington, DC to file this appeal in an attempt to try to overturn our\u00a0court victory that said their virtual ban on the right to carry a firearm for self-protection was unconstitutional,\u201d said Second Amendment Foundation founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb.<\/p>\n

Under the District\u2019s concealed carry law signed into\u00a0effect back in 2014<\/a>, permit applicants had to\u00a0provide to the police chief a \u201cgood reason to fear injury to his or her person or property\u201d or \u201cany other proper reason for carrying a pistol.\u201d<\/p>\n

In other words, D.C. was treating the 2A like a privilege \u2014 not like a fundamental right. \u00a0You had to not only seek permission but provide evidence that you were going to be a victim of an attack before it happened (Hmmm… think about that logic). And if the police chief didn\u2019t accept your reason, well, then he or she could deny your application willy-nilly.<\/p>\n

SAF challenged the “good reason” requirement in court and won. \u00a0The District argued that because of its dense population that includes\u00a0\u201cthousands of high-ranking federal officials and international diplomats” it needs a more restrictive issuing standard.<\/p>\n

That three-judge panel, in a 2-1 decision, shot down that reasoning, saying that “the District\u2019s good-reason law is necessarily a total ban on exercises of that constitutional right for most D.C. residents. That\u2019s enough to sink this law under (the 2008 U.S. Supreme Court\u2019s Heller ruling).”<\/p>\n

But the District is hoping that the full court will buy into their claptrap about “high-ranking officials” and “diplomats”\u00a0and overturn the panel’s decision.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey have no intention of complying with any court decision that supports the right to keep and\u00a0bear arms,\u201d Gottlieb said. \u201cIt took the Heller<\/em> decision to force them to allow a gun in your own home for self-defense. It took the Palmer<\/em> decision, another SAF case, to force them to repeal their total ban on carry and now they are kicking and screaming about losing the Wrenn<\/em> decision.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMunicipal stubbornness cannot be allowed to outweigh the constitution,\u201d added Gottlieb. \u201cA civil right should not be subject to bureaucratic neurosis.\u201d<\/p>\n

We’ll keep you posted on this case.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
