Second Amendment Current Event Re-Post

Who: A reluctant District of Columbia
What: They decided to allow concealed weapons in the country's capital
When: The article was posted shortly after the event, September 23, 2014
Where: In the nation's capital, Washington DC
Why: It was done because many argued in the nation's capital that banning the right for the public to conceal weapons should be legalized because banning it was against the constitution's second amendment.  The district of Columbia had to agree and granted the permission of citizens to carry concealed handguns with them, assuming they are legal, registered weapons.

Ninth Amendment Current Event

Who: Arizona
What: The Us Supreme Court must rule on Arizona's new immigration law
Where: Arizona, United States
When: June 21, 2012
Why: Arizona is attempting to create their own immigration laws and the Supreme Court is against it.  The Department of Justice filed a lawsuit against Arizona, and other states that enacted similar immigration laws, claiming their state regulations were preempted by the federal government.
