Here's to hoping. If there ever were a time in recent history to make a definitive ruling on the 2nd Amendment, it's with this court.
However, the risk-averse bit of me wonders if it would be better just to let the lower court precedent stand, as--while it's still a weaker ruling than a potential SCOTUS ruling--it's still a usable precedent for other jurisdictions. It's the big-risk/big-payoff scenario... while I don't think the Court could go the wrong way, they've done so before, and that could be disastrous. Not that it matters what I wish; the gun-grabbers were going to push it up to the Court anyway.
Here's to hoping.
