Just skimming Scalia’s opinion—it looks like he makes an exhaustive historical case for the Court’s decision, making use of the many excellent briefs filed on the side of the RKBA. This is good news because it will provide context for lower courts and, more broadly, educate the public (those who have open minds, at least) about the second amendment in particular and constitutional jurisprudence in general.

Is it wrong of me to take delight in the fact that Justice Scalia quotes Justice Ginsburg in his discussion on the meaning of the phrase “bear arms”?
