A federal appeals court panel has ruled that the federal law banning handgun sales by licensed dealers to anyone under 21 is unconstitutional; the government is able appeal the decision to the full appeals court or go directly to the US Supreme Court.
Glock semi-automatic pistols at Hiram's Guns/Firearms Unknown store in El Cajon, Calif., on April 26.WASHINGTON — A federal appeals court ruled Tuesday that the federal law banning handgun sales by licensed dealers to anyone under 21 is unconstitutional.
"We first find that 18-year-olds possess Second Amendment rights," Judge Julius Richardson wrote."They enjoy almost every other constitutional right, and they were required at the time of the Founding to serve in the militia and furnish their own weapons." The Second Amendment, he said, is different"not because it is uniquely oppressed or imperiled, but rather because it is singularly capable of causing harm."
