Devil's Deal

A passage in the opinion, which Justice Scalia had plainly added to secure a fifth vote, said the decision "should not be taken to cast doubt" on many kinds of gun control laws." [More]
So all the antis jumping on that to discredit "shall not be infringed" are relying on a "compromise" made to get the thing passed.  This makes me wonder if Scalia communicated with anyone outside the court for a green light on how much could be given up...

Would it be totally unfair to also wonder if Fairfax had a hand...?
