An interesting article by Tom Knighton.

Related, since the discussion is of the “well-regulated militia” clause, my article in the Georgetown Journal of Law and Public Policy. I contend that the right to arms clause and the militia clause had different origins and different constituencies, and were not joined together until very late in the constitution-drafting game. One does not govern the other, anymore than that freedom to petition the government proves that freedom of speech and press are limited to critiques of government policy.
