State v. Sieyes: Second Amendment Applies to States

The Washington State Supreme Court ruled February 18, 2010, that the Second Amendment applies to the states through the Fourteenth.
The case was State v. Sieyes, opinion here.

Notwithstanding that finding, the Court upholds the state's right to limit or prohibit 17 year olds from possessing firearms. In this case, the 17 year old was stopped for a traffic violation and had a loaded .380 under a front seat of the car.
