Now, you may want it to mean something other than what it says, but it means exactly what it says.

The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.....

Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside.

Learn what commas are for, might help.

You mean that you can be on United States's soil and not be subject to the jurisdiction of the United States?

You just legitimized illegals by insinuating that the United States do not have jurisdiction over them, thus it can't enforce immigration laws the may be breaking by being here.

Brilliant bucky!

"The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."

Mmmm.

If I recall right, it actually says that "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

If your "coma placement" constitutional theory holds up, then the right of the people to keep and bear arms only exists as it pertains to participating in a State-based Militia.

Brilliant!
