Thanks for this! This just made the 2nd Amendment so much easier to understand and defend.

The argument that I have heard and read against the 2nd A is that in this day and age we don't need or have a militia, thus why do we need armed citizens if they can't or wouldn't ever form a militia.

Clearly, this is talking more about citizens right to protect themselves and their property from unjust intrusions by anyone up to and including the Whitehouse/pentagon/military.

Thus naturally, if we have the right to protect ourselves from the military then we have the right to have the firepower (if you have means to legally obtain it) that it takes to defend yourself from the most advanced troops in the world.

It's a total gamechanger.
