I think they will hear it since there are two different circuit courts giving opposing rulings. The ruling from SCOTUS that denies the 2nd in applying to the states is, if i remember right, from 1882. It is about time it is reheard and decided on again.
Has to do with incorporation of the 2nd Amendment at the National level if it proceeds to SCOTUS.
Ahhh quit trying to boost your post count.
Actually due to the Ninth Circuit ruling that extended the 2nd Amendment to the states, it is now incorporated in Washington. A SCOTUS review could either extend that incorporation to all the states or deny it to all the states. They could also rule on the merits of either case without discussing incorporation at all.
Still meaningless for Washington State, and it doesn't directly apply to anything going on in Washington. Once can play 7 degrees of separation all they want but it doesn't make an off topic post on topic.
Wouldn't change a thing. Look at the wording of our constitution. Even without incorporation Nickels hasn't been able to fight anything. Plus if Nickels really had the power most people give him, he would have gotten an AWB imposed years ago when he and his goons were pushing for one.
