A federal judge has ruled that New York's ban on personal ownership of stun guns is unconstitutional.

Friday's ruling by a district judge in Utica is the latest in a series of court decisions that have led to the loosening of restrictions on the weapons in several states.

The decision came in a lawsuit filed by Matthew Avitabile, who said he wanted to buy a stun gun for self-defense in his rural upstate New York home.

Now we need one to address magazine capacity.
In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
