Well, the militia could be “well-regulated.” I admit I’m not sure whether the militias of 1791 — namely the whole of the (adult male non-felon) population — bore any requirement of training. Probably not, on the one hand ... but on the other hand that may have been because it would be unthinkable that a lad would grow up then with no rifle training at all. Obviously today I’m okay with a basic training requirement for CCW permits. I understand you aren’t, and that’s ok. Long’s I get my permit ... which in CA puts me SOL!

Permit? Why do you insist upon agreeing with the concept that you must ask government to grant you your God-given rights?

A right not asserted, is a right lost.
