They omit history that tells the full truth.

At the time the 2a was written, every man supplied their own weapon. Which means it was their personal weapon they used when serving in the armed forces. They bought it and owned it.

They used it for protecting themselves from animals and from thieves and murderers as well.

The left ignores this major historical fact because it totally destroys their idiotic arguments trying to distort the 2a.

The Pennsylvania constitution makes the intent and purpose of the 2nd amendment very clear.

Very good.

Plus, the “militia” referred to were the private citizens, with their firearms, who would stand together against enemies.
