Federal judge: Post Office violated man's rights by banning gun from parking lot
A federal judge has ruled that a U.S. Postal Service regulation barring firearms in its parking lots violates the Second Amendment in a case brought by an Avon man and a national gun rights group.
But Senior U.S. District Judge Richard Matsch said the Postal Service has a right to bar Tab Bonidy, who filed the lawsuit, from carrying his gun into the Post Office building itself.
Bonidy, who brought the suit along with the National Association for Gun Rights, in U.S. District Court in Denver, has a concealed carry permit and routinely carries a firearm.
