Do you think you're actually adding clarification to the issue by saying the whole people? Who are the whole people?

I believe the Judge (Lumpkin) defined what he meant. See quote above, but the important part for our purposes here was "not militia only".

Then you believe "the people" means different things in the constitution. It means one group for voting, a different group for bearing arms, a third group for 4th amendment protecttion, something totally different for the 9th and 10th amendments ... etcetera .... etcetera.

Living and breathing, that constitution is.
