Scalia's cursory opinion (not legal opinion yet) is that the term "bear arms" may restrict the Right to weapons that can be carried by one person.  He apparently hasn't thought-through the questions of shoulder-launched missiles, rocket-propelled grenades, flame throwers, etc.     When you begin getting into the details of the 2nd amendment, there are some problematic implications that should be addressed.  My personal opinion is that the 2nd amendment originally meant that a citizen could legally possess ANY weapon.  In today's world, that intent IS problematic.
