Please read something before you cite it: The section actually reads:
Sec. 311. Militia: composition and classes
(a) The militia of the United States consists of all able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and, except as provided in section 313 of title 32, under 45 years of age who are, or who have made a declaration of intention to become, citizens of the United States and of female citizens of the United States who are members of the National Guard.
(b) The classes of the militia are -
(1) the organized militia, which consists of the National Guard and the Naval Militia; and
(2) the unorganized militia, which consists of the members of the militia who are not members of the National Guard or the Naval Militia.
Therefore, under your argument, there are no gun ownership rights for women unless they are members of the National Guard or Naval Militia, nor are there any gun ownership rights for any male over 45 years of age! I'm 63. Who do I turn my weapons in to?
Next, please realize that “well regulated” refers to the Militia organization, not the weapon! Under your interpretation, an unclean weapon could be confiscated by the State.
We also don’t have a Naval militia.
I’ve read it time and again! I’m trying to get more people to read it and thus have an argument when opposers say 2nd amendment is for militia. As for your age? I’d say you were beyond age for malitia and promoted to self standing army! Semper Fi
Well regulated? I submit my source”The second amendment primer” by Les Adams. The firearm should be modern and the owner needs to know how to use it.
Ahh,the ladies. I’ve had many in my self defense classes and NRA pistol, and personal defense classes. Best students out there! Times are changing and I suspect they will be included in the militia some day.
Sorry my bad, I just get so frustrated about this. You are correct. I was also refering to 2nd amendment primer by Adams, just got the two mixed up in my mind. Keep informing everyone about this it needs to be spread like wildfire!!
Thank you,
