This ordinance is clearly designed to put significant restrictions on a right guaranteed to citizens under the constitution then turn them into criminals for driving outside the city limits or not having a proper locking box or having the weapon loaded (God forbid!). The gun control nuts should be nervous. Their position is in direct conflict with the Constitution and the second amendment. The only reason they have gotten this far is idiotic legislatures and judges who like to restrict freedom every chance they get.
From the article:
"The ordinance in question said that residents with the proper permit could take a handgun outside the home to a city shooting range, provided it was unloaded and in a locked container, but that the gun could not be taken beyond the city limits.
Three residents challenged the provision, saying that they wanted to take their firearms outside the city to gun ranges, shooting competitions and second homes. They argued that the law violated their Second Amendment rights and said transporting an unloaded gun in a locked container did not pose any significant safety risk. Two lower courts rejected their claims and upheld the law."
