WI Clarence Thomas gets his way in McDonald vs Chicago?

So what would the effects be if Clarence Thomas had gotten his way and McDonald v Chicago overturned Cruikshank and the Slaughter-House Cases?

Edit: For those who aren't in the know, incorporation of the Bill of Rights is by the Due Process Clause because Cuikshank and the Slaughter-House Cases ruled that the "Privliges or Immunities Clause" didn't say anything.
 
States no longer have to abide by the Fourteenth amendment. The USA becomes less united. Over 60 years of jurisprudence goes out the window.
 
Um, what? The Slaughter-House Cases and Cruikshank ruled that states could disarm the people and restrict their speech.

Edit: If you're talking about Substantive Due Process, it was Dred Scott that established that.
