In this case, a restriction solely on the federal government. Just as the Framers intended.

Your skill at discerning the framers' intent, contrary to their clearly written words, is amazing.

Backwards. You leftists want to insert an expression that was never made. As the Supreme Court noted in 19833:

"In compliance with a sentiment thus generally expressed, to quiet fears thus extensively entertained, amendments were proposed by the required majority in Congress and adopted by the States. These amendments contain no expression indicating an intention to apply them to the State governments."
