Ok, that may be how you see it. But that is not how the FOUNDERS saw it, and that is the context in which we must measure all laws, especially the Constitution, or we are right in the lap of the liberals with their "living document" tripe about the constitution and their definitions of "militia" as "national guard." I don't think you want that!

We have come to the end of our discussion. Like all of the Union apologists you appear to favor a government which is strong on authority and coercion and weak in the protection of liberty. In short, a government which is a master of the people rather than a servant. I don't understand what makes people such as you tick and find that the value of interchange of ideas with them is rather limited.
