I have spent the day (and night) reading up on legal issues relating to the right to keep and bear arms (RKBA).

I looked in to the civil rights forums and perhaps spent way too much time there.

I am raising the issue in this forum because I would like to know what people who support RKBA think is is an appropriate level of knowlege/participation in the topic.

I am a teacher, but some time back I practiced law. Today I felt a little guilty for letting the details of the effort slide past me, and I am thankful for people like Alan Gura who are getting things done.

Three cases worth looking into are:
District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570 (2008)

Woollard v. Gallagher, No. 12-1437, argued Oct. 24, 2012 appealing Woollard v. Sheridan, No. L-10-2068, 2012 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 28498 (D. Md. March 2, 2012)

and

Kachalsky v. County of Westchester, No. 11-3642,
2012 U.S. App. LEXIS 24363 (2d Cir. Nov. 27, 2012)
