Does the Court usually hear a case because they want to uphold a ruling?
Would they want to do it for a rkba ruling?
There are a lot of Democrats who firmly believe in rkba, but they are not Sup Ct justices.
I’m a pessimist. Especially after Kelo.
It’s not just about upholding one ruling, it’s that there are conflicting rulings across the same level of appellate courts.
It’s also a once-in-more-than-a-lifetime case for people in the legal profession. Of just 10 points in the Bill of Rights, and its 200+ year history, this is the last Big Case (TM). This is _huge_; cases of this magnitude are extremely rare. It’s just way too good for ‘em to pass up.
