2d Amendment Conference at Geo. Mason Univ.
George Mason University will host its second symposium on the Second Amendment, on October 7. Details are in extended remarks below. I'll be speaking, BTW.
It's a great event, esp. for us lawyers. Where else can you get 7 hours of CLE, for free?
Dear 2005 Symposium Attendee:
I hope you enjoyed last year's "Firearms Law & the Second Amendment Symposium" that was held at George Mason University School of Law.
Due to the success of last year's inaugural event, we are hosting another Symposium on October 7. As with the 2005 event, this year's Symposium, including food, beverage, and all materials, is FREE!
Here are the details of the 2006 "Firearms Law & the Second Amendment Symposium":
Saturday, October 7, 2006
9:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.
(Registration & breakfast 8:00 a.m. - 9:00 a.m.)
George Mason University School of Law
3301 Fairfax Drive - "Original Building" Room 121
Arlington, VA 22201
FREE!!!
At this year's Symposium, panelists will discuss and debate: current Second Amendment scholarship, litigation against the firearm industry, the U.N.'s intrusion into legal domestic gun ownership, and issues involving self-defense and Right-to-Carry reforms. Featured panelists at this year's event will include some of the country's most renowned experts on the Second Amendment and related issues, such as: George Mason's own Professors Nelson Lund and Joyce Lee Malcolm; George Washington University's Profs. Robert Cottrol and Renee Lerner; Lawrence Keane of the National Shooting Sports Foundation; attorney Richard Gardiner; David Kopel of the Independence Institute; Prof. Brian Patrick from the University of Toledo, and others.
This event promises to present a thought provoking discussion of what has become the most controversial freedom in the Bill of Rights. Each Symposium registrant will receive a packet that contains the panelists' written materials on the subject--an excellent source for future reference. For guests who are attorneys, this year's event may once again meet state requirements for continuing legal education. Again, the event, including all materials, food and beverages, is being held without charge.
