Judging from the news reports, it sounds like there are five votes for overturning the DC law. What will be interesting will be the reasoning and what it bodes for other gun control laws. Unless there's a lot of stuff in the debates over the Second Amendment, I would surprised to see them interpret the Amendment as focusing on an individual's right to own guns to protect his home.

E.g., when the militia clause says "free state," does it just mean free from foreign invasion or does it mean free from overstepping by the national government. If so, then states and their citizens should have arms on a par with the national government to repel incursions, which means we all get to own nuclear weapons.
