From the article: “The case concerned not the Second Amendment itself, but its scope — which the judge substantially broadened by declaring: “The Court finds that the right to bear arms is not limited to the home.””
Therein lies the faulty logic of the writer. The notion that the judge broadened the scope of the Second Amendment by his declaration that the right is not limited to the home clearly shows this college student doesn’t know a thing about the Amendment, apart from the mental pablum he’s been fed in the government schools.
May God help us all...
My personal opinion is that the Second Amendment did make reference to citizen militias, rather than personal ownership of firearms. This is because the right to own a gun was on a par with the right to breathe, and a gun was indeed a necessity of life for many, at that time. I believe this right is more properly covered by the Ninth Amendment, concerning “other rights retained by the people”.
