Section 1 of the fourteenth amendment is the "incorporation clause."

Not to my knowledge. Section 1 is the Due Process Clause and is the mechanism that courts have used to "incorporate" certain of the Bill of Rights, the second amendment notably not one that has benefitted from the Doctrine of Incorporation. Though by no means the only one that hasn't been incorporated.
