Since you are 1000% wrong in the first place, I will try to ignore the fact that you have told another lie. (Like THAT’S something new!) Especially since you have NOT provided any background to show that your “interpretation” is what they had in mind. And since you KNOW that the side which interprets the Second Amendment CORRECTLY has over a jillion quotes FROM THE FOUNDERS THEMSELVES which lend great credence to the fact that the Second Amendment is an INDIVIDUAL RIGHT, guaranteed but not granted by the constitution. And what government does not grant it cannot take away... not and be a legitimate government, anyway.

I agree that the Founders talked a lot about the right to keep and bear arms. I also agree that they talked a lot about it being an individual right. We're on the same page.

Now, a jillion is a big number. Out of that jillion, please find for me one quote -- just one -- where a Founder said that the second amendment protects this individual right.

One out of a jillion. Shouldn't be difficult, right?
