You missed the " shall not be infringed " part ! I'm sure that the British Army would have liked for the colonists to have possessed inferior quality arms ; a view apparently not far removed from yours.

It seems the fed courts are determined to wield powers it does not constitutionally possess. The fed courts use the "commerce clause" argument out of the same whole cloth as the "establishment clause"; one to incrementally whittle the Second, the other to purge religion from the public square.The centralization of power is almost complete.

Go back and read #16 again until ya get it right.

I'm on YOUR side. My point is that I DO understand the 2nd amendment and the "Supremes" do not!
