So why did you claim it was "as defined in the constitution" if it wasnt actually defined?Show me this definition in the constitution.We already have a well regulated militia. So why do civilians need guns?
The militia as defined in the Constitution is comprised of and led by the people not the government
No words are defined in the Constitution it was the vernacular of the times. Just like "well regulated" meant in good working order or disciplined and did not mean government controlled as we take it to mean today
Forgive me lack of clarity of the statement.
Militia as defined at the time of the writing of the Constitution. Well regulated as defined in the vernacular at the time of the writing of the Constitution etc
For Context of the militia and the 2nd Amendment, everyone should read some of the the States Constitutions on it. INDIANA'S in particular.
