...the regulated militia in question was the STANDING ARMY that the founders wanted ordinary citizens to have the ability to resist. Ergo the following about nott quartering troops in homes, unlawful search and seizure.

...what you are doing is moving the goalposts around to fit your argument rather than making your argument fit.

The 2nd amendment is in one sentence, with commas. No period before the right of the people to bear arms, because that right is associated to the "regulated militia", otherwise it would be in its own sentence, following a period, and then you could have the current interpretation, which is wrong, and contradicts the regulated militia piece, which makes no sense to even exist and be mentioned. Who cares about regulated militia, if everyone/anyone can have guns?

Eh?

Anyone who thinks there is a different interpretation can state it here, and explain why.
