[QUOTE="cmhbob, post: 2386558, member: 20220"] But the federal courts ARE addressing RKBA issues at the state and local level. Did you miss the recent story about Chicago? Washington, D. C.? Those were federal RKBA cases. Federal courts can't just say, "X is unconstitutional." A case has to be filed somewhere, by people who have standing to file the case. That means someone who was adversely affected by a particular law has to sue someone who either wrote or is executing the law. And generally, cases have to work their way up the system. I've forgotten a lot of my Ohio HS civics classes, but I seem to recall that not all federal courts are courts of original jurisdiction, and those that are are limited in that scope. Someone correct me there as needed. [/QUOTE]
