You have to interpret the second amendment as it was written then, not as you define it now. If you actually study HOW the bill of rights was written and what was said about crafting the second amendment you will realize that militia was defined as ALL able bodied men 18-45. That, combined with the part about 'right of the people', should explain the rest.

why do you think taking guns away from law abiding citizens is also going to get them away from the criminals?

when the thread started shifting, I would use me and my family as examples. If you would like me to stop doing that so I don't confuse you on the issue, i'll be glad to stop.
