U.S. v. Arzberger decided in favor of 2nd amendment

[seamusTX]

Federal law requires defendants who are charged with possession of child pornography to divest themselves of firearms, as a condition of bail.

One Jason Arzberger was so charged. He appealed the judge's bail order, and a U.S. Magistrate in the Southern District of New York declared the portion of the federal law that prohibits defendants from possessing firearms unconstitutional on a 2nd amendment basis.

I think this is not even a binding ruling for the district where it was decided (yet), but it is precedent.
