SO will this be an indicator of how the justices will rule on any 2nd Amendment case??????? Could they be willing to loosen up and let the old political stricures go, will they rule on a 2nd Amendment case now??????
Will it be in the favor of the individual right interrpretation???

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Supreme Court (news - web sites) on Wednesday invalidated part of the 18-year-old federal sentencing system used for 64,000 criminal defendants each year and ruled that the guidelines cannot be mandatory.
The high court ruled that its decision in June, which struck down a similar sentencing system used in Washington state for violating a defendant's constitutional rights, also applied to the federal guidelines.
