"How is the National Guard, which answers to the President and which trains with federal weapons, on federal land, paid for by federal money, and which federal charges apply to those who would trespass on the camps, a State militia, capable of protecting individual states from federal tyranny, as intended by the Framers?"
Don't even engage the National Guard argument. The national guard did not even exist for more than 100 years after the Bill of Rights was adopted. Furthermore, the National Guard has nothing to do with the 2nd Amendment. It's about the people, not the government. The government has no rights. The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.
