Thanks for posting the opinion. I actually read the whole thing, including the dissent. Then reread the majority's comments on the dissent.
I was unaware of how little SCOTUS has visited the topic and believe the majority opinion was well researched and reasoned.
The dissenting opinion did not seem to be hostile to a non-D.C. citizen but did show the thought process of someone who did not want you to have that right.

"Today's decision flies in the face of laws that have helped decrease gun violence in the District of Columbia," D.C. Mayor Adrian M. Fenty said.
I wonder how proud he is to know that DC has a higher murder rate than Medellin, Colombia.
"...the homicide rate in Medellin is now lower than that of Washington DC..." --Wikipedia
