Nope. This brief weakens the government's argument if it ever tries to defend those laws.

No one is stopping you from breaking a federal gun law and going to SCOTUS over it. This doesn't prevent that in any way, and in fact it strengthens your case.

That is EXACTLY what the White House is trying to prevent Emerson from doing,and I have always been lead to believe the WH has a certain amount of influence.

How does giving a STRONG hint to the Supreme Court that the WH doesn't want them to hear a 2nd Amendment case strengthen future 2nd amendment cases?
