I agree with most of what you said here, if not all of it, but I think you are being too charitable in the conclusion.
I find it hard to believe that the 9th would look at their track record of ruling against gun rights 100% of the time and not know it. I find it equally hard to believe that they would look at that record and not realize that an enumerated right should have more weight than a 100% fail rate in their court indicates. I find it hard to believe that the SCOTUS would look at their record of only taking 2 gun cases in what, 70 years? And then think that's acceptable when they're taking 35 1A cases in 10. And putting the 2A aside, looking at the time frame to get serious cases resolved, let alone serious Constitutional questions, there is an unbelievable amount of failure. 5-15 years for most cases to be resolved by SCOTUS or Circuit courts. The lawsuit over the Exxon Valdez oil spill took 26 years! That is not justice. I find it hard to believe that any of the Justices don't realize how screwed up it is to make someone wait 5-26 years for any ruling but especially on Constitutional issues. Quote:

Don’t know if it holds merit, but I heard an interesting idea today: the President has the authority to appoint Justices to the Supreme Court, and the Senate approves, as is the current practice.
However, there doesn’t appear to be anything stopping the President from naming one of the existing Justices on the court as Chief, and demoting the current CJ, if the Senate also approves. THAT would be a show! |

I just made a new thread for discussion of the remaining 2nd A cases requesting cert after the decision in NYSRPA. Since NYSRPA case is dead, as far as us in CA, let this thread die and take the discussion over to:
https://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/...8#post24215188 That thread is for discussion of the entire group and what SCOTUS is up to versus discussion as to particular aspects of any of the 6 particular cases. Use those cases' own threads for those discussions.

Not entirely. We still get to see what CA2 does with the new rule. I imagine they will stay the course, apply "intermediate scrutiny", and say the new rule doesn't infringe.

I did feel from the beginning that this case aimed extremely low since a public carry case win would have made this completely moot (people would just get full carry permits so they don't get hassled). It did finally get the elusive cert grant and eventually got (most) of what they wanted so what do I know. |

This case is, for all practical purposes, dead to CGNers. The 2nd A cases that are still pending before the Court are being discussed at: https://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/....php?t=1609480 I guess you missed my post about that above....
