The second Amendment is a doctrine that tells the US government that they may not infringe on our God given right to protect our lives and property.
I dont think your interpretation is exactly right, either. I believe the government was formed for the specific purpose of protecting God given rights, not just not infringe on them.
This.
I sometimes joke that if the Second Amendment was treated like the Fifth, the government would be obligated to issue weapons to those who couldn’t afford to buy them.
Our government was formed as protection against a tyrannical government and it is up to us as individuals, as communities, as a culture to protect the basic human rights bestowed upon every man by our Creator.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed...
Our government was given a specific list of what it could NOT do as regards these rights. It was not given the duty to protect or regulate them.
Of course, that's my opinion as I read the founding documents.
