In a landmark Second Amendment case, the Supreme Court will for the first time squarely address the scope of the right to bear arms and the government's power to limit it. LA Times reporter David Savage predicts the Court will conclude by a five-vote majority that the Second Amendment guarantees rights to individuals, not just militias, and that the Washington, DC handgun ban at issue in this case is overly restrictive. Neary also talks to the attorneys who've argued both sides of the case and plays audio snippets from the actual oral arguments in this highly informative segment.
