Read this excerpt from the District of Columbia v. Heller dissenting opinion:

The (Second) Amendment permits government to regulate

the interests that it serves. Thus, irrespective of what

those interests are-whether they do or do not include an

independent interest in self-defense-the majority's view

cannot be correct unless it can show that (Washington,

D. C.'s) regulation is unreasonable or inappropriate in

Second Amendment terms. This the majority cannot do.3

What does the author of this excerpt most likely believe?

A. Individual states may prohibit firearm ownership, but the federal

government cannot.

B. Firearms are a danger to the average citizen and should be

outlawed nationwide.

C. Cities have the right to reasonably limit individual rights to

promote the public interest.

D. The Second Amendment no longer applies to the modern United

States
