      It’s not ignored. It’s a justification for the other half, not a requirement

          If you can argue that it’s never a concern that the government will illegally exceed its constitutional authority and threaten the country’s status as a free state, maybe. Good luck with that.

              Ensuring a free state is the why, citizens owning guns is how

                  If you want MAGAs in government and law enforcement to be the only ones with guns then that’s your decision. The 2nd amendment makes sure everyone else doesn’t have to do that.

                    ‘American gun culture prevents American fascism’ is not what happened so far. They have a relationship. That’s not it.

                    And again: the amendment justifies guns guns guns with a militia that no longer exists. It’s one sentence that does not say what you want.
