Denton School Book "summarizes" 2nd Amendment

A workbook being used in Denton as well as many other schools I'm sure, summarizes the 2nd amendmant to read: "keep and bear arms in a state militia."

It sounds like the new edition has a corretion but it seems to me that there is an intent here to teach an "interpretation". The story and response from the text book company made it sound like an honest mistake since it was published before Heller but I don't think so, that seems like a weak argument to impost an interpretation rather than just giving the actual text.

More distortion in a South Carolina text book, different from the Texas book:
