You can convolute the issue any way you want, but it still says "the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." The assertion about militias being necessary for the security of a free state does not modify the second clause. If you said "Rivers, being necessary to carry rainfall to the ocean, the right of the people to swim shall not be infringed" would the rain have anything to do with your right to swim? You tell me. It's so obvious, I can't see why you people dwell on this so much. There is NO connection between the clauses! All this business about stinger missiles and such is nothing but a smoke screen you anti-gunners throw up because you know you can't win. Why you are so adamant in your positions is a great mystery. You already have the right to NOT carry a firearm, and that will not be changed if you and your henchmen emasculate the Bill of Rights. Rest assured, my friend, the Bill of Rights does not suffer nit picking gladly.

It's all or none. Why can't you understand that?

Look, if you don't want to have a gun, go hunting, wear a fur coat, eat red meat--why do you have to interfere in the rights of others? We don't meddle in your rights. Your right to be an idiot is sacrosanct as far as we're concerned.

Just leave us alone.
