Gun Laws in the 50 States and D.C.
While most Bill of Rights issues have been ironed out at the national level by the Supreme Court and applied to the 50 States (e.g. search and seizure, due process, etc.), the Court has studiously avoided so applying the Second Amendment. Therefore, gun owners have no local Second Amendment protection and are at the legislative mercy of their State, if not their county or city. This foments random peril for any travelling gun owner.
