If the Framers meant Muskets instead of Arms, they would have used the word Muskets instead of Arms.
Most of the Cannons used by the Patriots in the Revolutionary War were Privately owned “Arms”.
If the same rule applied t the First Amendment, the Internet would be Illegal and only Printing Presses would be allowed by the Ruling Elite.
Sorry to think that that this Idiot Woman is one of the 100 Special People out of a Population of 320,000,000.
Interesting fact about cannons being privately owned BTW :) Do you have any more information or sources about that?
Will the Constitution suffice? Art I, Sec 8, cl 11, which allows the government to write Letters of Marque and Reprisal. This meant that the new government was allowed to contract with private individuals to use their privately-owned battleships of the day, replete with hundreds of cannon, to help the government in attaining its goals (which was initially, and ironically, battling Muslim pirates and slaver ships... which is the source of the line "to the shores of Tripoli" in the Marine Corps Anthem). Good enough?? It is written in the Constitution before the Second Amendment. Not only cannons, but battleships, were recognized as properly permitted, and useful, in the hands of individual citizens.

Read it on FR years ago and Googled it. Many were on our early Naval Vessels. I read 70% were Privately owned and donated to the cause.
