Enacting Sensible Gun Laws Will Continue in Light of U.S. Supreme Court Decision in Second Amendment Case

Brady Campaign President Paul Helmke at the Supreme Court after Heller decision is released: "Our fight for sensible gun laws continues."

The Justices disagreed by the narrowest of margins, 5-4, on whether the Second Amendment provides an individual, non-militia based right to bear arms. But all nine Justices agreed that a wide variety of gun laws are presumptively constitutional.
