The court is wrong=- the 2nd A makes no mention of a militia- it simply states that the rights of the people to defend themselves/bear arms shall not be infringed-

Govt has become a round-robin of ‘wink wink nudge nudge’, scratch your back you scratch mine.
Anyone truly believe they would upset THAT apple cart??

You’re right, i spaced out on my statement-
[[but it is subordinate to the last 1/2 of the text; merely reaffirms the militia IS The People.]]
it does make mention of ‘well regulated’ however- but the second amendment does not grant people inalienable rights- all people are given the right to defend themselves by God- not by order-
