ABSTRACT:

The National Constitution Center asked two professors-one nominated by the Federalist Society and one nominated by the American Constitution Society-to discuss the meaning of the Second Amendment. The exchange, which appears on the Interactive Constitution web site, begins with a co-authored statement that articulates the principal points of agreement between the two contributors. It is followed by individual statements addressing several issues on which the contributors disagree.
