(The way the liberals read it)
A group of thirty young black men and women, dressed in black leather jackets, berets, and dark glasses, crosses the lawn to the steps of the state capitol. Many of them are armed with shotguns, though they are careful to keep the weapons pointed towards the sky. As they approach the entrance to the capitol building, Governor Ronald Reagan, speaking to a cluster of schoolchildren nearby, catches sight of their advance, turns on his heel, and runs.
Still marching in tight formation, the group reaches the steps, faces the crowd, and listens attentively as their leader, Bobby Seale, [1] reads Executive Mandate Number One of the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense to the startled audience. The mandate, addressed to the American people in general and the black people in particular, details the terror, brutality, murder, and repression of black people practiced by the racist power structure of America, and concludes that the time has come for black people to arm themselves against this terror before it is too late. [2]
Cameras flash as Seale finishes reading and the defiant group proceeds into the building. One wrong turn, and the delegation stumbles onto the Assembly floor, currently in debate over the Mulford Act, aimed to prohibit citizens from carrying loaded firearms on their persons or in their vehicles.
Chaos ensues: legislators dive under desks, screaming, Dont shoot! and security guards hurriedly surround the party, grabbing at weapons and herding everyone into the hallway. All the while cameramen and reporters run back and forth, grinning in anticipation of tomorrows headlines.
Who are you? one manages to shout before the assembly is led into an elevator. Sixteen-year-old little Bobby Hutton is the first to reply, and his words remain an echo in the hallway just before the doors slide shut with a soft hiss:
Were the Black Panthers. Were black people with guns. What about it?[3]

The Supreme Court did no such thing in Miller. To the contrary, it went off on its own finding that a sawed off shotgun did not constitute a "militia" weapon, and cited in passing many state statutes in support of the truism that the "militia" meant all able bodies males. Miller is shaky law anyway because the defendant's side was never argued before the Court.
Also, there is only ONE comma in the 2nd. It comes after the word 'state'.

This pretty much says all there is to say about the intent of the Second.
