What are "compelling state interests"? For members of Congress and other Washington policy-makers, "compelling state interests" translates to "whatever reason the government finds."
Therefore, "compelling state interests" is a loophole that renders the Second Amendment moot at least in the minds of most Congress critters.
The Second Amendment is pretty clear to those of us who understand English and history: "A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."

Taken at your word, you support arming every prisoner inside of every jail in America.
