Their ideology will over ride any legal arguments. The DC ruling will not stand.

If you are correct, and the Supremes hear the case and overturn the DC circuit, ruling that the right is a "Right of the states", it's best we find out now, rather than after the frog is more thoroughly boiled.

There's always the possibility that my opinion that the SCOTUS is politicized and that their findings will be the result of ideology rather than legal argument is wrong. I certainly hope so. The problem is, I don't think so. Yes, it would be better to know the answer to that sooner rather than later.

"it's best we find out now"

No it's not.

There are now two lower federal court rulings stating an individual right. There may be more forthcoming. More and more states are passing concealed carry. More and more states are passing "stand your ground" laws and the right to protect your property.

What's the hurry? Sarah.
