If I wanted to get my hot little hands on a gun ASAP and stay within the law, I could always move back to South Carolina. Although I have other ways of protecting myself from would-be attackers (lethal ways, so don’t get any ideas, thugs), carrying a gun would make me feel even safer.
And I wouldn’t hesitate to use it when the time came.
But I can wait, since it looks like DC’s outrageously ineffective gun ban is destined to become an example of the most misguided and comically inept law ever written and allowed on the books, one that increased — rather than decreased — violent crime in the nation’s capital. It’s a thug’s paradise.
In March, a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia declared D.C.’s ban against handguns unconstitutional. Yesterday, the full court refused to rehear the case. In essense, the court upheld the panel’s ruling. (Source)
Second Amendment opponents will try to push the case to the Supreme Court, naturally, and I’m hoping the court refuses to hear it. If that’s the case, I may become the proud owner of firearms (yes, plural) sooner than I think. 
(By the way, thank you so much for the gun recommendations!)
