One last pass here.

Two points:

#1 My post was about the incorrectness of the original post, not anything elase.

#2 Never put one extra word in a law, or other writen item for that matter. If 2 simply said "The people shall have the right to keep and bear arms,: it could not be attacked in the "puropse" issue.

#3: In #29, Hamilton wrote "If a well regulated militia be the most natural defence of a free country, it ought certainly to be under the regulation and at the disposal of that body which is constituted the guardian of the national security...confiding the regulation of the militia to the direction of the national authority...(and) reserving to the states...the authority of training the militia".

Not good for us!

JESUS CHRIST, MAN! How can you completely slide past the preceding paragraph and remove the context?!!!
You're wrong in so many ways for doing so.
Good day!

Then using just that portion (and the intended argument) the "regulation" in question would actually be legislation, such as The Militia Act of 1792.
