Wilson: Handgun Ruling is "Shot in the Arm"

Congressman Joe Wilson (SC-02), longtime member of the National Rifle Association, today applauded the ruling by a federal appeals court striking down the District of Columbia's handgun ban:

"Today's decision by the DC Court of Appeals is a shot in the arm for Second Amendment advocates. For too long DC residents have been denied the fundamental right to protect themselves and their families.

"This is truly a victory for law-abiding, gun-owning citizens."
