I have never felt threatened in 20+ years of living in Washington DC and I said earlier in this thread that I thought the DC ban was far too restrictive.

It will be interesting to see how narrow the Court rules. The majority opinion of the Appeals Court, written by a very conservative judge appointed by Reagan, said explicitly that DC has a right to regulate and require the registration of firearms just not to ban them in homes.

In any case, its good to see that a Supreme Court finally took up a second amendment case.
