How could you possibly get that from what I wrote?
In the
McDonald case, the Supreme Court reversed the ruling of the 7th Circuit Court of Appeal (which tossed the case out), and remanded the case to the lower court to now consider the case further in a manner consistent with the rulings made by the Supreme Court.
All gun laws remain in force. They are subject to challenge in court. If and when challenged in court, the courts will have to decide those cases using the rulings of the Supreme Court in
Heller and
McDonald.
