<<I think the Second Amendment protects the right to own guns because gun ownership is necessary for a militia.>> I've read where one of the US strengths in WWI and WWII was that we had people going into the armed forces that already knew how to shoot. << I think the term "militia" describes something informal, which can be formed ad hoc in times of necessity.>> When President Eisenhower started building the Interstate Highway System, one mile in every 8 had to be straight with no overpasses. That made for lots of small landing/takeoff strips for fighter planes.
