Washington, D.C. City Council Ignoring Supreme Court Ruling
Gee, that's not biased at all. [/sarcasm]


The Supreme Court ruled that handguns can't be banned. It specifically said they could be regulated but declined to say exactly how much they could be regulated. So the DC City Council, which would prefer to ban guns outright, is testing to see how far it can regulate them. It isn't ignoring anything. It's doing the exact opposite of ignoring. It's reacting to the Supreme Court's ruling. How can you be ignoring something when your actions are in direct response to that thing?
