SCOTUS has declined to hear many important 2A cases even while Scalia was alive. They are letting Heller/McDonald be eviscerated by lower courts and doing nothing about it. One of the original Heller 5 is dead and one or more has turned.

I'm disgusted with the whole judicial system top to bottom because it's obvious many "judges" are just politicians with robes, deciding cases based on emotion, (perceived) public sentiment, "social justice" nonsense, peer pressure, bribes or other favors. The future of the 2A seems bleak, especially to those of us living in states that actively subvert the 2A.

I understand your disgust, but it was worse in years past. For 75 years, the Supreme Court refused to hear *any* Second Amendment cases, and let stand dozens of appeals court cases that were wrong on their face.

So, take heart, and stay in the fight. We have won important victories.

We now have 9 Constitutional carry states. In 2002, there was one.
