Was Heller comparable to Roe v. Wade?

 So argued the eminent Fourth Circuit Judge J. Harvie Wilkinson, III, in Of Guns, Abortions, and the Unraveling Rule of Law, recently published in the Virginia Law Review. In Unraveling Judicial Restraint: Guns, Abortion, and the Faux Conservatism of J. Harvie Wilkinson, III, Nelson Lund and I disagree, arguing that none of Judge Wilkinson’s comparisons to Roe are accurate, and that Heller is no more of an “activist” decision than any other decision protecting an enumerated right. The final version of our article, forthcoming in the University of Virignia Journal of Law and Politics, is now available on SSRN.
