"The governor or commander could issue an order to those under his command to disarm. How does the Second Amendment prevent that?"

It doesn't and never has. The right shall not be infringed by the federal government.

Why would a governor or commander issue such an order? Has any governor or commander ever done so in the history of the United States?

"Congress may lawfully remove it by taking command of the state Militia and issuing an order to disarm. See I.8.15 & I.8.16."

That is what the second amendment was designed to protect against.

That is what the second amendment was designed to protect against.

So Congress could not call up the Illinois NG into federal service and issue a lawful order to disarm? Is that yor claim?

The right shall not be infringed by the federal government.

Art 6 para 2. It applies to the States as well.

We've been over this before and yet you continue to spout the same drivel thread after thread.
