[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A little history to help show the original intent of the 2nd amendment. James Madison produced an initial draft of the Second Amendment as follows: The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed; a well armed and well regulated militia being the best security of a free country: but no person religiously scrupulous of bearing arms shall be compelled to render military service in person.[/quote] Who cares what the "initial draft" said? My first drafts get trashed all the time. Clearly Madison's intent was compromised away. The current text says "well regulated" and that clause is dismissed by this Supreme Court with a hand wave.[/quote] Are militias not well regulated? The part of 2nd amendment that applies to individuals is quite clear and any gun control regulation would be moot.[/quote]
