It’s a asinine argument, if the Second Amendment was solely direct to militias why would it even mention the right of the people to keep and bear arms? It would be the same as me arguing that the First Amendment was directed solely to the press and not ordinary citizens.

. . . and you actually think that journalists respect the right to freedom of the press for anyone other than themselves?
