"Shall not be infringed."
No matter how much the blue states keep trying.
A Maryland county thought that the best course of action to protect Christian residents is to BAN firearms from being brought within 100 yards of any churches.
You know, because people who want to shoot up people in a church will definitely respect that law...
From the Daily Caller:
The Department of Justice (DOJ) on Monday filed suit against Montgomery County, Maryland, over a law prohibiting carrying firearms within 100 yards of multiple locations, including churches.
Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon posted a letter sent to the Washington, D.C.-area county Thursday, warning that the provisions barring firearms from thousands of locations — even those that granted permission for people to carry firearms — run afoul of the Second Amendment. In the complaint filed with the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, DOJ attorneys took aim at the provisions barring the carrying of firearms in many locations, notably churches, citing the Supreme Court's decision in Wolford v. Lopez, which invalidated a similar law in Hawaii.
Leave it to the Democrats to not let perfectly clear legal precedent stand in their way of trying to subvert the Second Amendment rights of Americans.
Check out Dhillon's letter in its entirety here:
Though the Democrats might seem to think leaving Americans defenseless in their churches sounds like a great idea, Dhillon says the Constitution clearly states otherwise.
'Congregants have a right to protect themselves and their community,' Dhillon told the Daily Caller News Foundation. 'The Second Amendment doesn't stop at the church door.'
Better luck next time, Dems.
