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.
