SCLC calling on blacks to Exercise Second Amendment Rights - Video

BELLEVUE, Wash., April 2, 2015 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Second Amendment Foundation will continue fighting the District of Columbia's new concealed carry law, while notching a small victory with today's decision by the city to drop its appeal of SAF's victory in the Palmer case that forced the city to adopt a carry permitting structure.

"While we're happy to see the city drop their appeal of our earlier victory," said SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan Gottlieb, "we were eager to face them in court, as there was no possible way they could have successfully argued in favor of continuing an outright ban on carry in the District.

"This is one more criticalSecond Amendment Foundation victory for gun rights," he added. "But we will continue to keep suing the city of Washington, D.C.over their new carry law that is still an unconstitutional infringement on our Second Amendment rights."

Under the District's newly-adopted law, permit applicants must still provide a good reason for carrying a protective firearm outside the home, and the police chief gets to decide whether that reason is valid. So far, only a handful of applicants have been approved, and Gottlieb said that shows a fundamental flaw in such a discretionary permitting scheme.

"No public official should enjoy that kind of sway over a citizen's right to bear arms," Gottlieb stated. "It creates a manifestly unfair system that is wide open to abuse and favoritism, as we've seen in New York, California and elsewhere that insiders and elitists can get permits, but average citizens are routinely given second-class consideration, or no consideration at all."

This is not the end of the Palmer case, however. SAF still has outstanding enforcement motions pending before U.S. District Judge Frederick J. Scullin, Jr., who handed down the initial Palmer ruling. His rulings on those motions could produce further appeals, SAF attorney Alan Gura explained. SAF has already filed a lawsuit challenging the District's current highly-restrictive "good reason" requirement.

"Our intent is to continue our battle for the right to bear arms on behalf of all the citizens, not just a privileged few," Gottlieb concluded.

The Second Amendment Foundation (www.saf.org) is the nation's oldest and largest tax-exempt education, research, publishing and legal action group focusing on the Constitutional right and heritage to privately own and possess firearms. Founded in 1974, The Foundation has grown to more than 650,000 members and supporters and conducts many programs designed to better inform the public about the consequences of gun control.

ATLANTA (CBS46) -

The Southern Christian Leadership Conference has suspended Georgia President Rev. Sam Mosteller over comments he made at a news conference on Tuesday.

Mosteller said it's time for African-Americans to change how they deal with police.

I am going to advocate at this point that all African-Americans advocate their Second Amendment rights, Mosteller said.

The Second Amendment states: "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

Despite his statement about the Second Amendment, Mosteller said he's not encouraging African-Americans to arm themselves.

I said the Second Amendment right. I didn't say pack weapons, Mosteller said.

Mosteller said the fatal police shooting of Anthony Hill in DeKalb County and Nick Thomas in Cobb County, both of whom were unarmed, is a wake up call.

"When one is killed senselessly, that one is too many," Mostellar said. "These killings are reminiscent of the days of old when African-Americans did not have to provoke an officer to become harmed and be endangered species. Black men -- no matter the age -- are indeed endangered species today, and we must come together with the police community to determine what can be done to stop their violence!"

National SCLC president, Dr. Charles Steele, Jr., issued the following statement. It reads in part:
