There's been a lot of movement in the legal community (well, outside of FedGov) for rethinking Smith v. Maryland. This may give SCOTUS an opportunity. I doubt they'd go as far as today's opinion, but there's plenty of scholarship to say that Smith is outdated.
Compare to the decades of legal scholarship that eventually culminated in the Second Amendment being reinstated, kind of, by SCOTUS in the Heller and McDonald cases. What, it actually means the government can't ban guns? Gasp!
