So she walked around OCing?

If they pass a ordinance in a week to limit carry to permittee they will blow their chance of a stay and a appeal. Hopefully if they are going to fight it in the court system it will take 5 years as it did to get to this ruling.
They have had 5 years to adopt a reasonable solution, they should get no stay.
I believe they will take the route Illinois did, pass a very restrictive law, and outlaw OC.
This...
If they get a stay, they will appeal, but I think they will lose ultimately.
If they don't get a stay, I think they will pass legislation in a hurry, and end up with a "may issue" scheme with no reciprocity.

The motion for a stay must be in front of Scullin. That will take a while since he is a part time senior judge who works out of up state New York. A stay is no slam dunk for DC. It will be hard to get because one of the prongs for a stay is likelihood of success. Hard to get from Scullin who has written a fairly tight opinion with little wiggle room for DC.
Scullin cites Peruta, which is great news for shall issue. ( Rights cannot be denied due to operation of law and discretion of local officials.) Scullin's ruling also precludes the exclusion of those that live outside of DC.
It is a big win for gun rights. DC will fight this, but the death rattles for DC's anti gun laws are loud and persistent.

Honestly I never thought I would see this in my lifetime. It is IMO just short of a miracle, hopefully the liberty bug will spread not only here in the US but the world.http://gunwatch.blogspot.com/2014/07/first-legal-open-carry-in-dc-in-70-years.html?m=1
Picture of a man OCing in DC. We win.

That would violate the Terry ruling though. I suspect there will be a lot of MWAG calls since DC folks are used to being unarmed. I wish I could go to DC to OC, considering the memo from the chief of police. It should still be done in a group though to keep from being singled out by a rogue officer.
And thereby turn a right into a privilege - with barely a whimper from various gun organizations.If they pass a ordinance in a week to limit carry to permittee they will blow their chance of a stay and a appeal.

Will not arrest NON FELONS... meaning they will still stop you without RAS, probanly handcuff you and steal your firearm until THEY decide if you are allowed to carry.
page 2 said:Officers need [RAS] of a crime in order to conduct a stop of a person in possession of a firearm
The article is dated Tuesday 29 July 2014. Typo? I so wanted to get a ticket to DC this past weekend.
and it would violate US v Black which is a 4th circuit ruling, which DC is a part of.
