Maybe free speech is only intended for a well regulated militia?

What everyone has missed is the linguistic argument. "The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." You can only "infringe" on something that already exists. This clearly means that a pre-existing right to keep and bear arms PRECEEDED the constitution and the Bill of Rights. Therefore, it could not apply merely to militias.
