I particularly like Andrew Perlman and Steve Lubet’s comments on Caperton at the Legal Ethics Forum (e.g.: ‘How many “uncertainties” did Heller raise about future applications of the Second Amendment? I think we could easily list 40 (or 80), some of which were specifically reserved by the majority opinion.’): http://www.legalethicsforum.com/blog/2009/06/more-on-caperton.html#comments
