But that is not what it says. It talks about ARMS. In your interpretation, the PEOPLE have the right to keep and bear ARMS (not guns). Arms could be small caliber weapons, or it could be a jar of anthrax. If you wanted to buy 50 gallons of anthrax, should I be able to restrict you? It is not an absolute right as practiced.

You're right it doesn't say ABORTION either. If you aren't free in your PERSON how can anyone possibly say that someone else is entitled to your "person", e.g., the fetus or your husband in non-consensual sex?
