Let me get this straight. I said those who qualified to be in a well regulated Militia were adult, white, male citizens.

You said I'm WRONG.

You say that those qualified to be in a well regulated Militia were 18-45, white, male citizens.

I'm not in the mood to play games. Go away, lightweight. I got better things to do than argue semantics with you.

I quoted the law to you.

Here it is, read it yourself.

It says what I said, not what you said.

There were plenty of natural born Americans at that time that were part of “the people” but were not members of “the militia”.
