Good news, bad news
Halbrook looks at NRA v. BATFE and note’s it’s, well, wrong. But while the case concludes that handgun sales to those under 21 can be banned, it has a bit of a silver lining:
The government thus asserted that the plaintiffs were not injured and lacked standing. The court disagreed, finding the inability to purchase a handgun from a dealer to be a concrete, particularized injury.
Would have made the Heller case a bit easier.

So the Court essentially created a legal “straw man” purchase option?
Wow, just WOW!
