    You don’t even know what that means. It means “regularized”, as in well trained and supplied. The idea was that having the populace be well armed would make it easier to muster a defense force in case of a conflict. “Because the state needs a well supplied and trained military force to remain free, the people have the right to own and carry armaments without restriction” would be the correct transliteration using the vocabulary of today.

      We have a standing army now, so yeah. About that. It’s an outdated amendment that only recently has been interpreted as zero restrictions.

        It was interpreted as having 0 restrictions for 150 years.

        You might find it outdated and useless, repeal it then.

          You do not know what you are talking about, or the laws around it and the interpretations of it changed in the 80s.

          I will not argue with y’all gun weirdos. Have a lovely day.
