The decision still leaves an awful lot that has to be fought for another day. The decision only involves federal law and federal territory (Washington D.C is a federal city).

The very scary thing is that we are only one vote away from having the individual right of gun ownership taken away.

I haven't looked at the dissenting opinions yet. I'm almost too scared to take a look.
From what I've seen of them, they're weak - at best. Haven't read them all - but I do have the entire thing ready to print out so I can read it all later.

As for the other laws that need to be challenged, I think that's a good thing. It gives those with grievances the ability to challenge the unConsitutional laws and get them over-turned - which sets precedent and can let a lot of this be done locally rather than nationally.
