Where do you find this in the Constitution?
And the Second does not guarantee everyone a right to bear every form of arms.

He 'finds it' the same place he found this howler of a misconception:
"-- The BoR was written to control ONLY the federal government while leaving state governments free to violate them at will if not prohibited within their constitutions. --"
The gungrabbers never rest in their efforts to justify prohibitions on 'certain' types of arms.
It speaks of "the People" not individuals and explicitly mentions the militia as a justification for the protection of that right. Protection of a Free State was the function of a militia specified within the document. Strict construction does not always lead to the result we might like.
Nor is there any indication that the People believed criminals or lunatics should be allowed to possess arms. Or that everyone has a right to a nuclear weapon or Abrams tank.
