I was unaware that the ACLU received funding from the Joyce Fdn, but I am not surprised. I need to check out the ABA's site and get its reaction to the defeat it suffered in Heller. The main thesis of the ABA amicus brief was that declaring an individual right would mess up a lot of gun control statutes, CFRs and ATF Regs. In other words, that holding that the 2A means what it says would exalt the Constitution over the laws that Congress and the Presidents pass and the Regs that bureaucrats promulgate. Apparently, the ABA disagrees with the notion of Constitutional pre-emption. They must have all missed the day in law school when they covered pre-emption in Con Law.
