Re: Do Fewer Guns Mean Less Crime?

Let see if we can get a gun fanatic to charge into intellectual discourse with the following from Emerson:

Although, as we have held, the Second Amendment does protect individual rights, that does not mean that those rights may never be made subject to any limited, narrowly tailored specific exceptions or restrictions for particular cases that are reasonable and not inconsistent with the right of Americans generally to individually keep and bear their private arms as historically understood in this country.

Anyone spot the inconsistency for the constitutional law expert? (I've given a clue)
