This makes it likely for Ashcrap's justice department to drop the case,
which means a clear 2nd Amendment issue will not go to the SCoTUS, which
means as soon as this case is out of the pipeline, they can "change"
their policy just like they just did.  Especially if the Dem's take over
the House next year.

We seem to be living in interesting times.
