The U.S. Supreme Court is gearing up to rule on an area of the law that it has been silent on for over a decade: the Second Amendment.\n\nThe case under consideration will help decide whether the right to bear arms extends beyond the home and into the streets.\n\nThe implications of the decision could be enormous.
