Following the Bush administration's reversal of a decade-old interpretation of the Second Amendment,
Alabama Attorney General Bill Pryor and 17 other state attorneys general have commended the new ruling.
The letter to U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft praises his "position that the text and the original intent of
the Second Amendment clearly protect the right of individuals to keep and bear firearms. We agree that this
is the proper reading of the Second Amendment, and that this policy best protects the fundamental interest
of Americans in security and self-preservation."
Other states which signed the letter include Delaware, Georgia, Idaho, Kentucky, Montana,
Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia,
West Virginia and Wyoming.
