Chicago ban on minors at gun ranges struck down under the Second Amendment https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/volokh-conspiracy/wp/2017/01/19/chicago-ban-on-minors-at-gun-ranges-struck-down-under-the-second-amendment/?utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_term=.5f1e80ec6603 "The City’s primary defense of the age-18 limitation is to argue that minors have no Second Amendment rights at all. To support this sweeping claim, the City points to some nineteenth-century state laws prohibiting firearm possession by minors and prohibiting firearm sales to minors. Laws of this nature might properly inform the question whether minors have a general right, protected by the Second Amendment, to purchase or possess firearms. But they have little relevance to the issue at hand."
