Somehow methinks SCOTUS (at least the RKBA-hostile judges) will find themselves between a rock and hard place on this one.
- Rule for incorporation, and see major fallout as Chicago, NY, etc. all lose their precious gun control laws; you’re familiar with this issue.
- Rule against incorporation, and see the 2ndA shine an extremely bright spotlight upon federal gun control laws as the totality of the enumerated right becomes concentrated; “shall not be infringed” becomes an unavoidable imperative having nothing else to dilute it, taking out 922(o) and NFA first and soon voiding a host of other national laws per “you don’t have the power to enact such restrictions”.
Painted into a corner.

Many of those various state and city laws banning guns were imposed in the 19th century, at the close of the Civil War. Since then, Judges have been reluctant to challenge those restrictions.I'm absolutely dumbstruck.
