I guess I should have added the sarcasm tag to my original post...duh!
My point is...the 2nd amendment applies to the people of DC and their rights have been infringed upon for all these years by not being allowed to own firearms...
Up until recently I'd totally agree with you. I'll risk reminding you of what you already know and that is that the District of Columbia is not a State of the Union. The legal rights of people in DC are different from those in Virginia, a "free state," as mentioned in the 2nd. Same as the States, DC has had militias. But the right to keep and bear arms is preserved only to State Citizens. To the States, the right to organize militias and regulate them.
There are two classes of citizen. One rightfully called citizen and the other also called citizen but should be called subject. 40 Cal 311, People v. De La Guerra will confirm this. It was when I read a citiation from this case that my view changed.
