With Second Amendment Challenge, D.C. Moving To Lift Its Ban On Stun Guns

Faced with a lawsuit that attorneys for the city concede they likely can't win, the D.C. Council on Monday will start considering a bill that would do away the existing ban on stun guns, which use high voltage to immobilize a possible attacker.

The bill, which faces its first public hearing before the Council's Committee on the Judiciary, would allow residents to purchase and carry stun guns. It comes in the wake of an August lawsuit filed on behalf of three D.C. residents who want to carry stun guns for self-defense. The lawsuit says the ban on stun guns — which D.C. defines as "destructive devices" — violates the Second Amendment.
