The right to own guns. It’s in the Constitution – in the Second Amendment. But is it an individual right, or just the right to participate in a “well-regulated state militia”? The U.S. Supreme Court has never answered that question – until now. In a 5-4 decision, the court ruled with gun advocates, overturning a District of Columbia gun ban.

In this edition of Due Process, Sandra King tracks the longtime fight over gun rights, and its origins in the legends of the Old West. In the studio, Raymond Brown moderates a spirited debate with gun rights advocate Gary Needleman, Ceasefire NJ President Thomas Jardim and Seton Hall Law Professor Edward Hartnett.
