How the Second Amendment Works

In a move that is bound to piss off everybody in the entire community, Decius is going to present his thoughts on the history and interpretation of the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution.

The Second Amendment is one of the most controversial parts of the Constitution. Hopefully, more information about the context in which it was written and the history of its interpretation will make the meaning of the text seem less subjective. Be forewarned that the direction the Court is heading with this will not satisfy partisans of either side of this issue, but if you care about the subject, as many in our community do, its worth understanding what is happening in this area, whether you agree with it or not.

Target Audience: People who love guns and people who hate people who love guns and people who hate people who hate people who love guns.

Note: "This is not to be a drunken rant. I will not drink till its over. You should actually say that in the conference program." - Decius
