Saul Cornell Responds to David Hardy's Post
on the Joyce Foundation-funded symposium on the Second Amendment. He
writes:
I fear David Hardy has not checked his facts. (Not that surprising
given the quality of much of what he writes on the gun issue.) Here
are the facts. Nicholas Johnson was invited to participate and he
withdrew at the last moment. Calvin Massey participated in the
conference and published an article that was pro-individual rights.
Ray Diamond participated in the conference, but failed to
contribute an essay. (He did not respond to e-mails and calls from
my assistant or from the law review editors.) Johnson and Diamond
are both on your pro-gun scholars guide. Jan Dizard another
pro-individual rights scholar participated, but decided not to
contribute an essay. Hardy never contacted me before making these
false claims. The Fordham conference was much more inclusive that
the law review issue organized by Glenn Reynolds that gave rise to
the silly notion of a standard model. The goal of this conference
was to present new research, not recycle the same old arguments.
