"The Second Amendment Doesn't Prohibit Gun Regulation - It In Fact Compels It," According to Professor Saul Cornell
Link: http://www.buzzflash.com/articles/interviews/029
When you get to his comment on "handguns," and how the Second Amendment does not prohibit an out and out ban on them because they are not fit for militia use, please recall that the Militia Law of 1792 required certain people to show up with not one, but two, horseman's pistols . . . (See Section VIII of the law). Of course, the interviewer fails to mention this and follow up by asking Professor Cornell to elaborate.
