Near the end, there’s a part we’re Hirono is party to a call for the Supreme Court to heal itself and reduce the influence of politics. Holy hypocrites...

"Justice Stephen Breyer also said he believes that people who stop for coffee while transporting guns would not be prosecuted."

Supreme Court shows little appetite for expanding gun rights in arguments over repealed New York regulation

KEY POINTS
-The Supreme Court seemed unlikely to deliver a major win for gun-rights activists during arguments in the first significant Second Amendment case the justices had heard in nearly a decade.
-Some of the court’s conservatives, including Justices Neil Gorsuch and Samuel Alito, seemed eager to use the case to address the reach of the Second Amendment.
-But it appeared likely that Chief Justice John Roberts would side with the court’s liberals to dismiss the matter altogether as moot.

The article you reference is from MS NBC, one of the most left biased outlets out there.  TheTruthAboutGuns had there own reporter in the hearing and his take is cautiously optimistic.  https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/on-the-arguments-predicting-the-outcome-of-new-york-state-rifle-pistol-assn-v-city-of-new-york/

I heard arguments and rationale on both sides of the "It's relevant" vs "It's moot" argument.  To me the issue was the overreach of the law in the first place.  That there has been "relief and therefore moot" argument (I think) brought up by RBG is valid, but still  :grrr: Just another attempt as further attempt at restriction.
