Independence Institute, LEAA, Police Organizations File Pro-Gun Heller Brief

"In conjunction with a broad coalition of law enforcement organizations, the Independence Institute has filed an amicus brief in District of Columbia v. Heller, the Supreme Court case which will decide whether the DC handgun ban and ban on home defense with any firearm is a violation of the Second Amendment."

The brief is available by clicking here.

When you pull up the brief, take a long look on Page 1 at the law enforcement and prosecuting attorney organizations that have signed on in favor of the individual right of DC residents to possess a handgun, a number of them from California. In addition to the Law Enforcement Alliance of America (LEAA), and an international law enforcement trainers organization, even the San Francisco (of all places) Veteran Police Officers Association is on board.
