Libertarianism and the Second Amendment.

I'll try wrapping this up in a written assignment of some sort. Libertarians seem conflicted over how to best secure gun rights. They like the Second Amendment, but its in the national constitution. They're uneasy about using the power of the national government to limit state and local power. But, perhaps that's necessary.
