It is there to ensure that the states can defend themselves and individuals can defend themselves. "*a* free state", clearly meaning the nation, and nothing whatsoever about self defense... I think we've exhausted the discussion. If you don't want to admit the obvious that's cool.  By the way, I respect you for your stated opinion on Zimmerman's responsibilities. Why would a 'free state' mean the 'nation'? Surely the authors would have used the word 'nation' if that was there intent. States were in existence at the time. |
