They must have finally gotten the courage to deal with it. Of course, they would have to realize that an unfavorable verdict would have a good portion of the population riled up.
ANY ruling will leave a good proportion of the popultation riled up. They just have to go in determined to uphold the obvious original intent of the Constitution.
They might get riled up, but won't do anything about it. An unfavorable verdict will lead to an immediate ban of handguns in almost every city in this country. It will be an end run around for the gun banners.
The sheeple will sleep.
