The court didn't "remove" gun laws yesterday. What they did was decide that states cannot have "may issue" laws and deny permits for arbitrary reasons. 2A is an enumerated right in the Constitution, and so there's a pretty high burden to restricting the exercise of that right. Incidentally, "may issue" laws traditionally were used to deny certain classes (usually black Americans) the ability to exercise their rights.
