Anyone Up For Reading Some Legal Briefs?
By Mitch Berg
Johnathan Adler, writing at Volokh, writes about the Solicitor General’s brief against the Heller case:
the Solicitor General’s office has filed a brief in D.C. v. Heller supporting an individual rights interpretation of the Second Amendment, but nonetheless calling for a remand in the case because the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit applied too high a level of scrutiny in the case.
Read the whole thing.
Im the meantime David Kopel – perhaps the best Second-Amendment issues writer in the business – writes about the various amicus briefs re the Heller case (the revisit of the DC gun ban):
In the Comments below, there will be some people who want to engage in a troll-driven debate over the gun issue in general, and others who will want to criticize or praise the Bush administration for the SG brief. However, I encourage readers instead to read one of more of the amicus briefs in toto, and to offer thoughtful comments on the brief.
I’ll take ’em to be beach with me.

Troll driven debate? AC will be on the case!
