Civilians owned cannons and other artillery; they owned warships.Did the military of the Revolutionary War have missiles, tanks......They did have guns. So, I'm going out on a limb and say "Arms" refers to any type of gun or rifle. Whether or not a citizen should be able to own military weapons, I doubt it. In fact, in my state, it's illegal to own martial arts weapons anywhere but in a martial arts studio, quoon, dojo......
But they didn't own iPhones or computers or TVs or TV stations so I guess the government can restrict any speech they wish on any of those, right? Tell the press what they MUST say and what they CANNOT say on TV or on the Internet?
