Agreed that it is not verbatim, very little of what we have today, over 200yrs later, is verbatim. As are most laws, interpretation is the key here.
Stop right there. Judicial interpretation of plain english to find penumbras and emenations are WHY things are going so far afiled in our government. Excusing it by saying "that's just the way it is" does not make it legal, nor does it come close to making it right.
5 people may rush one with a box cutter. 1 person with gun can easily stop one person with a box cutter. 1 madman with a gun can kill 5 unarmed victims. 1 madman with a gun doesn't stand a chance against 5 good men with guns.
That last one is the one that will kill your arugment every time. Give it up.

Might not be right, might not be legal. But that is the way it is. This is getting tiring, so I will leave, but remember, if you can bring a gun on-board, so can he. If 5 of you can bring guns, so can 5 of them. If it is impossible for anyone to bring a gun, no one gets shot. There is no arguement, just common sense.
