Takeaways

 

The recent Supreme Court opinion on the constitutionality of a provision related to the possession of firearms by individuals subject to domestic violence restraining orders was not a victory for gun rights.

The Second Amendment has four main purposes: guaranteeing the states a militia power, promoting the individual natural right of self-defense, supporting the people defending against foreign invasion, and defending against domestic tyrants.

There is a lack of education on the Second Amendment in law schools, and many law school graduates have limited knowledge of the topic.

Understanding the Second Amendment is essential for preserving freedom and protecting individual rights.
