  1. This dance is nowhere near done. The city simply continues doing what they were doing before, daring somebody to sue them. If someone takes the effort to sue them, their lawyers throw up a porcupine defense, saying that the law is unconstitutional, the city has some special protection like charterness, etc., etc. This buys them a couple more years of in-your-face to gun owners. If they finally lose, then the taxpayers of the city pay all the relevant fines and so on. Tucson showed us all how this dance goes.
