Do you not see the difference? The District moved only as far as the Court required it to.
Congress is not going to touch this. The 101st Airborne is not coming to DC. More inapt and offensive comparisons.

So, the DC leaders are saying that homeowners will just have to deal with an armed intruder intent on causing harm to the owner and his/her family.
If I ever get stupid and decide to live in DC, please remind me of this.
