Balkin & Volokh on Blogging Heads

Jack Balkin and Eugene Volokh duked it out yesterday on BloggingHeads in what Balkin calls the “Bill of Rights Edition” of Blogging heads. They take on the First and Second Amendments.

My take: Balkin lays out the law and Volokh runs with it (sometimes at length). Especially interesting is their take on the Establishment clause of the First Amendment.

There’s enough explanation in there that non-lawyers won’t be totally lost.
