The handgun ban and the trigger-lock requirement (as applied to self-defense) violate the Second Amendment. The District's
total ban on handgun possession in the home amounts to a prohibition on an entire class of "arms" that Americans
overwhelmingly choose for the lawful purpose of self-defense. Under any of the standards of scrutiny the Court has applied to
enumerated constitutional rights, this prohibition—in the place where the importance of the lawful defense of self, family, and
property is most acute--would fail constitutional muster.
