Every discussion seems to come back to a 2nd amendment debate with you and your conclusion that if we dont agree with your interpretation, we are wrong.
Views opposite of yours are no less valid.

Not true, there is plenty of evidence to indicate the intent of the Founding Fathers, and much of that has already been presented in this discussion.
Arguments against gun ownership have focused on the 'need' for gun bans, and/or contemporary reinterpretations of the constitution.
Nobody has even attempted to submit articles written by the framers of the constitution or their contemporaries that indicates they were 'against' the second amendment being an individual right.
Feel free to do so.
Your 'every point of view is equally valid' argument is no more valid than my argument that the moon is made of cheese.
