It was assumed that they would not have moved 10 Second Amendment cases to conference, unless they were going to grant one or more of them a writ of certiorari.
Something happened in the conference to cause them not to grant a writ.
My suspicion is John Roberts said something like: "Let the people decide. Lets wait until after the next election."

So none of these 10 cases will now move ahead?
We already decided the question of the Second Amendment in the aftermath of the election of 1790; we do not need another election unless Congress proposes to amend the Constitution to repeal or alter the second amendment.
Realistically, the justices apparently didn’t dismiss the cases; they just didn’t grant any such cases. Perhaps they considered hundreds of other cases, and the time for the meeting expired. Perhaps they’re too focused on the oral arguments of this week. Perhaps they’re debating whether to request some paperwork, or maybe they decided to review the paperwork already submitted more thoroughly so that they don’t get another malformed case like that of the New York City pistol club.
We just need to wait patiently. The justices probably will address the second amendment in the coming few years. And we need to reelect a Republican president lest the Democrats install another pro-death justice, who celebrates the deaths of not only millions of unborn Americans but also of ordinary American adults and children, whom criminals kill.
