Likewise, if Palmer v. DC goes all the way to the top, which is depending on how aggressively DC fights it and/or how stupid they are to risk losing, the question as to whether carry rights invalidate local bans or onerous restrictions ala NYC will become simply a matter of whether the 2nd Amendment applies; the right of carry will be permanently reattached as it should be. Put the two together and no city in the country--DC, NYC, LA, San Francisco, Chicago, Baltimore, or Boston--will be able to ban or obstruct its law abiding citizens (and perhaps with some further litigation, anyone else who passes a background check) from being able to carry a firearm for self defense. They may be able to choose to tell them whether they can carry concealed or open, but at least one or the other MUST be legal.
