A 'right of the people'

Article Abstract:

The Second Amendment secures a right of individuals, which is the conclusion of an exhaustive memorandum opinion written for the U.S. Attorney General by the U.S. Department of Justice's Office of Legal Counsel. The Second Amendment secures a personal right of individuals, not a collective right of individuals that may only be invoked by a State or a quasi-collective right restricted to those persons who serve in organized militia units.
