I think joshbaumgartner (post 15 in this thread) made a very credible point that crime isn't an argument that relates to understanding the 2nd amendment as it isi currently written. It COULD be a consideration in a conversation about how to amend the Constitution. Do you disagree with him?

Yes, I agree. People confuse their views on the way things should be with how the amendment was written. Crime really has nothing to do with the 2nd amendment by itself.
It's as if people form their own view on the subject of guns, then read the amendment to fit accordingly.
