We're in for lots of nail biting between now and then, and it puts the 2nd Amendment in play for the election too, in a way it never has been before. I'm looking for lots of new gun control attempts, incremental encroachments, after the pols come back from Christmas break... at the state level as well. Not so much here in Idaho though. Which, when you add the BATF actions against dealers, and the increasing difficulties importing certain types of ammo, means we're not done yet. Be vigilant! Don't allow our rights to be removed. A win in the SCOTUS will >not< be the final word, you can count on that. I would hope they can generate more than a 5-4 in favor of individual rights.

If they look at the actual history of the 2nd Amendment, I think they will end up finding 5-4 that it is an individual right. I'm not sure that will change things all that much, but if it goes the other way.... I think it will be close, too.
