But Breyer's book, through its philosophical discussions of the meaning of liberty, does show a way to reconcile the subordinate clause of the Second Amendment (the importance of the militia to a free state) and the main clause (gun ownership as an individual right). And this reconciliation of the two clauses strongly suggests that the D.C. gun bans are unconstitutional.Dave Kopel seems to think there's a good chance we'll find a sympathetic judicial ear with Stephen Breyer, generally acknowledged as a "liberal." Let's hope he's right.
