Considering the 7th Circuit just demanded that Illinois institute CCW because it is a constitutional right, I cannot see how this case does not hit the SCOTUS. There is a direct conflict between two circuits and that calls for SCOTUS to make a decision and set the precedent.
Better hope it happens before any of the conservatives leave the court.

The 10th Circuit and 7th Circuit seem to be diametrically opposed as indicated by their opinions.
The Supreme Court often waits until there are conflicting rulings at the appellate level before taking up a case. That time will be soon.
Frankly, I’m worried as to how this could end, even with the Court’s current makeup. Of course, we can count on Alito, Thomas and Scalia. We _probably_ can count on Anthony Kennedy.
The problem that I see is Justice Roberts. Obama and his Chicagoland thugs know that Roberts can be rolled. It was their bullying and [what I believe to be covert] threats against him that caused him to literally reverse his vote in that case.
Obama “has the goods” on Mr. Roberts.
The question is, will they consider putting the boot on him again, for an issue as important to them as is gun control?
If the Supreme Court gets further stuffed by ( )o( )bama, the final outcome will be along the lines of Hillary’s “What difference does it make?”, 2nd Amendment is gone.
(”What difference does it make?” = “Who gives a f**k” (Navy)).
