Or put another way, that the American citizenry constitutes a "well REGULATED militia." ". The answer to that question is no. I am saying precisely what I said at the outset. Nothing more, nothing less. Thankyou, for a clear answer. So, to rephrase, in case you have a reading comprehension problem, are "A well regulated militia" and "The people", synonymous, in this context? No comprehension problem. Now you're not asking me what I was saying. You're asking your own question. The answer to that question is that I don't know. I may know if and when the Supremes take the case and decide. So far I don't believe they've spoken definitively on the question. I guess I'll have to allow you that position, which I percieve as being highly influenced by your legal training. Would you care to proffer an opinion instead? In your opinion, does the Second Amendment extend the right to own weapons to all citizens? If so why doesn't it (or perhaps it does) extend the right to own 155mm Howitzers to drug dealers?
