The Supreme Court ruled on Wednesday to decide whether the Second Amendment  applies to “gun ban” laws.

It choose a Chicago case in which Otis McDonald and others have filed suit against the City of Chicago.

The question presented, ” Whether the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms is incorporated as against the States by the Fourteenth Amendment’s Privileges or Immunites or Due Process Clauses.”

The statement of the case;

The City of Chicago enforces a handgun ban identical to that struck down by this Court as a violation of Washington D.C. resident’s Second Amendment rights. The Fourteenth Amendment guarantees that fundamental individual rights may not be violated by any form of government throughout the United States. Accordingly, Chicago’s handgun ban must meet the same fate as that which befell the District of Columbia’s former law.
