They have left open the possibility to rule ONLY on the enumerated provisions (and only in effect in the District) and nothing more.
All other states, cities, etc will have the freedom to enact any restricting local legislation they see fit. IOW, nothing will change except maybe in DC.
“Whether the following provisions — D.C. Code secs. 7-2502.02(a)(4), 22-4504(a), and 7-2507.02 — violate the Second Amendment rights of individuals who are not affiliated with any state-regulated militia, but who wish to keep handguns and other firearms for private use in their homes?”"
Also carefully included in the wording is the ability to restrict such posession to 'in their homes'.
Given such weasle, I mean wiggle-room, I cannot be optomistic that a court that has decided your home can be stolen for private developer's use based on tax revenue (remember Kelo vs. the city of New London, CT?) will somehow see the light and support the individual citizen in any meaningful way.
