"Thus, you figure, the fact that we don't have such militia today somehow invalidates the Amendment."

I guess a 140 IQ buys you your own version of logic plus some ESP to boot.

My conclusion wasn't anywhere close to what you are claiming. This is a classic straw man.

Try a little intellectual honesty, i-node.

My links are pretty clear. The original vision was that there would be state militias that would be the bedrock of defending the country and the last line of defense against a central government run amok.

That didn't work out. Wasn't the only idea they had that didn't. Those things happen.
