As much as I'm not a big fan of the newest court member, SCOTUS will be seeing more of these I would imagine and I would predict more clarification on reasonable regulations and what it means to have the right to be armed.

The Seattle one will be thrown out at the state level almost certainly at some point. The big fear is modification of that portion of the state constitution, I'm not sure if that can be done through initiative or if it would have to go through Olympia.
