ther that a governmental prohibition
on firearms was a " presumptively
lawful regulatory measure. "
Two years after deciding Heller, in
the case of McDonald v. City of Chicago, 130 S. Ct. 3020, 177 L. Ed. 2d
894 (2010), the Supreme Court held
" the Second Amendment was applicable to the states by incorporation
into the Fourteenth Amendment. " In
so doing, the Supreme Court stated
" Self-defense is the central component of the individual right to keep
and bear arms " and that this right
is " fundamental. " Once again, however, the Supreme Court reiterated,
" Second Amendment rights are far
from absolute " and " many basic

ing citizen who was simply seeking
to exercise his 'fundamental' right
to self-defense. " In response, the
federal government claimed the
challenged firearms regulation was
constitutional because it was " narrowly tailored to advance a compelling government interest in public
safety " in a public park.
In balancing an individual's Second Amendment rights against a governmental interest in public safety,
the federal appeals court would " take
into account the nature of a person's
Second Amendment interest, the extent to which those interests are burdened by government regulation and
the strength of the government's justifications for the regulation. "
A severe burden on the core Second
Amendment right of armed self-defense
should require strong justification. But
less severe burdens on the right, laws that
merely regulate rather than restrict, and
laws that do not implicate the central
self-defense concern of the Second Amendment, may be more easily justified.
While Heller recognized a " fundamental, core right of self-defense in
the home by a law-abiding citizen, "
once " outside the home, " the federal appeals court acknowledged that
" firearm rights have always been
more limited because public safety
interests often outweigh individual
interests in self-defense. " Similarly,
in this particular context, the federal
appeals court found the challenged
regulation would pass constitutional muster " if the government can
demonstrate that § 2.4(b) is reasonably adapted to a substantial governmental interest. "
As noted by the federal appeals
court, the federal government
claimed the challenged firearms regulation was a law regulating firearms
in " sensitive places, " as identified in
