From The American Spectator:
On Monday the New York Times uncharacteristically gave front page space to a story about liberal scholars who have -- albeit reluctantly -- come round to the individual rights view of the Second Amendment. Among the most prominent is Harvard Law Professor Laurence Tribe (the man reported to have pushed senators to oppose the Robert Bork nomination) who now teaches that any law-abiding American adult who wants a Colt Diamondback to safeguard his family or go 'coon hunting has the Second Amendment behind him.
I should point out here that the Colt Diamondback was made in .38 special and .22 long rifle. .38 is just barely adequate for home defense, with the right ammo, and .22 LR is just the thing for coon hunting, but it is not legal to hunt with a handgun with a barrel shorter than 5 inches in most places that I know of and the Diamondback was only available with 21/2 and 4 inch barrels.
