I am mildly more optimistic. No matter what, the Maryland Legislature will take notice in Spring of 2018. Either D.C will be shall issue, or the SCT will have taken the case. Meanwhile, Baltimore want to impose tougher gun sentences because Bodymore is out of control. There is a compromise here: tougher gun sentences + elimination of G&S.
That should be in the joke of the day thread.
Hogan will not force Pallozzi to accept "self-defense" as a good and substantial reason, and Frosh has worked so hard with the 4CA to keep the 2A inside the home.

If this goes to SCOTUS and they rule in our favor then Maryland will no longer be May Issue (neither will anywhere else) and then I predict the DC training requirements will be so high that Maryland will accept DC permits.

With our legislation? Not going to happen.

Not Hogan. I mean the legislature will toughen illegal gun crime sentences while "streamlining" permit process for residents ie repeal G&S. People in a District Hogan won want to be reelected

Yep. This is exactly how I feel.
As much as "we" might be nervous about what would happen in SCOTUS, the anti's have to be terrified. The court is effectively the same make up as the one that produced Heller. I have to believe that the anti-gun power groups don't want this case anywhere near SCOTUS. The wild card is that the DC Government may be just self-righteous enough to give it a go.
Yet again. They learned nothing from Heller. As a sovereign entity, they have nothing to lose by requesting CERT.
They don't care a whit about other states.
Remember "we're special"
I believe if everything were to go according to schedule, this could be decided this term. Of course if DC gets a stay then there's no incentive for them to do anything other than delay.
As you say, the schedule for this term is tight as it is.
Ditto
John Lott will be on WMAL at 5 PM to discuss the ruling.

Well, as a rule, a case won’t be decided this Term unless it goes to a Friday conference by mid January. That means that briefing (petition, plus response) must be done by end of December. Tough to see how that happens here. DC has 90 days to file for cert. They don’t have to take 90 days, but most petitioners do so. Respondents have 30 days to respond. They can take longer with an easily obtained extension, which they may do so as to line up amicus support. My guess (and it was hinted at by Alan Gura in the Wash. Post article) is that respondents will not oppose cert, but endorse it. That really won’t make cert more likely. A bit maybe, but it will still take 30 days at least to file a response. You are already past mid-January. And that may not be a bad thing.
Thanks!

So, what's next? Do we get someone to sue over having spent ammunition casings on D.C.?
AFAIK, DC has a legal right to prohibit them.
stupid? yes?
It's DC, MD's ugly assed sister.
