Nah, that's what misguided gun control advocates demand. It's the "militia" that the 2nd Amendment says should be "well-regulated," which is then followed by the caveat "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." Militias were formed by ordinary people who joined together to bear arms against the tyranny of the British Empire.

Gun control = infringement.


So, it's the militia that should be regulated, but not any of the members or their ability to utilize firearms? So what about it should be regulated, the type of coffee they drink?

That phrase came first for a reason. Gun ownership should be well regulated. There wasn't a new paragraph separating those two ideas. Shit, there wasn't even a period.

A well regulated militia made up of mentally unstable blind quadriplegics with dementia perhaps? I'm sure the NRA would fight for their right to be mindlessly dangerous--as long as they donated a few bucks to their pimps in Washington, D.C.
