In fact, it quite clearly states that BECAUSE "We the People" are the militia, we should always keep and use our own arms. "All the terrible implements of war" as one Founder put it. Swords, cannons, knives, man-o-war type ships, were all privately owned as were the rifle's they put food on the table with.

The militia is defined as able-bodied men between the ages of 18 and 45.
It is a sub-class of the people.
You are essentially still correct, however.

I agree - totally.
The Supreme Court must be dealt with. The only acceptable solutions are either impeachment or "packinig" the court with more Judges - conservative judges.
