Oral arguments today.

NY tried to moot the case by changing the law, in which the laws' prospects seemed grim. SCOTUS agreed to hear it anyway.

Here, I suppose that it was NY's plan to deny a likely 2A friendly court the opportunity to hear the conflict by changing their law (and pretending that they conflict would never again exist), only when it appeared that a dispositive ruling (in the negative for NY) from the SCOTUS was likely.

I guess NY thought they could just stall and bleed the appellants dry and then ultimately change the law back, not having any negative SCOTUS opinion to say otherwise. It was a slimy move, and fortunately for the appellants, SCOTUS saw through that move.

What a bunch of delusional fools. Yeah, were going to propose sweeping Constitutional Amendments because we can't get our way.

Nope.. It's going forward. A powder keg is brewing in this country and they know it.
