If they affirmed the *individual* right to keep and bear arms, how will this impact:
1.) Restrictions on the number of purchases that can be made in a certain time period.
2.) Restriction on which citizens may or may not keep arms
3.) Restriction on which types of firearms may be owned.
4.) Rrstrictions on how/when purchases may be made.
Any of these restrictions can be viewed as "infringement" and I am interested to see how this ruling will impact. With the constructionist Supreme Court that we now have in place, i hope that this is heard and affirmed. And then I want to see them review the 100 years of unconstituitional gun laws that are currently on the books through this new lens.

Reading the opinion, the only one of those that they came down strongly against is 3. The holding does not seem to create precedent helpful or harmful on the other questions.
