I'm a gun owner and my take after reading the book is that the 2nd is actually against guns for the general public.

Impossible. They royally ****ed up the syntax in the wording of the 2nd AMD.

WTF!

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."



The NRA and the arms industry have made $billions as a result though.

Grammatically speaking, that really is a ****ty sentence.

Because a well regulated militia is arguably no longer necessary to the security of the free state?

it seems like it's saying a well regulated militia is necessary to the security of the free state

so... you saying "no it's not" (and i agree with you btw) doesn't make the 2nd amendment anti-gun... it just makes you anti-2nd amendment

I've always been under the impression that a well regulated militia is the right of the people, this group of people know when the government is out of order and are brave enough to stand up . Also it's a choice to join a militia you don't have to but ya can if ya want too.
