What makes a regulation reasonable?

04 May 2012 article on Newsmax by Martin Gould and Kathleen Walter includes an interview of Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz who stated:

“There is a right under the Constitution, under the Second Amendment, to have guns for self-defense and for family protection and presumably for hunting, but reasonable regulations of such guns are the essence of a free society.” 

In a free society, self-regulation is the most reasonable regulation, and it's achieved the old fasioned way—with discipline. Our Justice System should concentrate on dealing with the feral element who expect to enjoy freedom without discipline or responsibility.
