Word out of DC right now is that under counsel of the AG, Chief Lanier has instructed the D.C. police force that the only gun possession arrests allowable in the District are for residents of D.C. carrying unregistered firearms, or people Federally prohibited from possessing firearms. Everyone else is in the clear, as of NOW.

The comments on that page are ... 'enlightening'... If 'enlightening' is another way to say 'concerning' that is...

I literally got WAY to excited over this. Needless to say I was overjoyed. Evidently all states permits are recognized.

As I understand it all non-residents are legal to carry so long as not federally prohibited [felon, etc]. I'm not a lawyer though.

With or without permits? What of the residents?

Seems that permits are not needed right now, IANAL though.

Either I've died or hell has frozen over. This seems WAY TOO GOOD to be true.

Also, are the residents screwed as usual or can they carry now?

They can carry as long as the carry weapon is registered with the DC police. If it's registered to you, and you aren't federally prohibited from owning firearms, you're GTG apparently.

I honestly never thought i'd see this happen. I'm feeling rather suspicious.

I realy want to to take some vacation time and drive to DC so I can take a selfie in front of the White House open carrying my Glock 17 with a 33 round mag sticking out of it

I wonder if you'd end up on the news as a gun nut from Indiana.

I think they'll attempt to have some kind of licensing scheme soon though.

According to some on INGO I'm already a self absorbed "Gun Nut" because I OC so what's the diffrence.

BREAKING NEWS: Indiana man carrying outside White House has been identified as member of INGO, Obama quoted asking "where do these guys think Indiana would 'go' to?"

How out of touch with reality do you have to be to say this:

Communities with minimal gun safety laws and more guns have higher incidents of gun related homicides.

..in an article about DC, a place with the most restrictive of gun laws, as well as a sky high murder rate?

D.C. seeks stay in order striking down ban on handguns in public - Washington Times

“The nation’s capital is a very different place than anywhere else in the country,” Mr. Mendelson said. “If there is a right to carry, it would have to be more heavily regulated.”

(If? Did he just fall off the turnip truck?)

Now that didn't take long, did it?

Faster than the relief expedition to Benghazi. Erm...

So...are convictions like this one going to be overturned? : Replica bullets, dud shell earn weapons conviction for former Washington man | Fox News

and...does it give strength to defense cases like this one? : Single Mom Facing Three Years in Prison for Not Knowing Gun Laws | Montana Hunting and Fishing

moreover, what of states that reciprocate no other states (e.g. Illinois, NE coast, etc.)? Can they be forced to re-think zero reciprocation?

As long as the, rightful, decision that it was unconstitutional holds up they would have to overturn them on appeal in my opinion.
