Re: What does a "well-regulated" militia mean?

The 2007 the Supreme Court ruled and stated it simply and succinctly.

U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit (2007):
The Amendment does not protect “the right of militiamen to keep and bear arms,” but rather “the right of the people.” The operative clause, properly read, protects the ownership and use of weaponry beyond that needed to preserve the state militias.
