That would make the amendment essentially meaningless. It would simply assure that those who are in a sense part of the government can carry weapons, which is the case everywhere.

Stevens and other Libs everywhere want to have 2 Constitutions: The one we have and honor now when Conservatives are in power (enter prayer here) and the “Pen & Phone” constitution (Titled “The United States of Chicago”) when Libs and Rinos are in power.

Not exactly. Now there would be an incentive for 2nd Amendment supporters to form militias! After all, “Joe-Bob’s Fundamentalist anti-demonRat Militia” does fit the definition of “a militia,” so members of the JBFadM would get to “keep and bear arms”!

So who here thinks the government would go for encouraging people to join militias? Anyone? Anyone?

Reread the militia act of 1903 aka the Dick act it says the militia is in two parts ,the active militia ie the National Guard & the inactive militia consisting of basically all able bodied citizens between 17 & 45 years of age. I think the Justice wasn’t thinking clearly on this one cause it would give a guarantee to carry arms unless the law is again changed.
