lol. It says, well regulated, means whatever Congress prescribes it to mean.
Here is an "unregulated" Korean militia defending their lives and property in Los Angeles after the police had run away from the riots and the arsonists.

This is what the 2nd Amendment is all about.
And yet, our constitution is subject to interpretation, like what the phrase "well regulated"dude; you are being, literally, incredible when you claim that. No Thing is more supreme than our supreme law of the land, in any legal venue in our Republic.
To me that sounds like the people should not only be armed, but trained and drilled.A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined; to which end a uniform and well-digested plan is requisite; and their safety and interest require that they should promote such manufactories as tend to render them independent of others for essential, particularly military, supplies.
"The project of disciplining all the militia of the United States is as futile as it would be injurious, if it were capable of being carried into execution. A tolerable expertness in military movements is a business that requires time and practice. It is not a day, or even a week, that will suffice for the attainment of it.

means in the context of the second amendment.
In Washington's first state of the Union address, he stated,

OR Federalist #29,
If the constitution needs no interpretation, we can save some money and send the supreme court home.We have a Constitution, for a reason. There is no interpretation necessary. The left merely needs to ensure, the right wing doesn't appeal to ignorance, simply for social convenience on a national basis.

Contrary to your beliefs, our Constitution is subject to interpretation, and the far greater risk
to personal liberty is from liberal judges doing the interpreting.
Extremes of both sides can impact personal liberty, but the left seems to have a gift.

I see you still are unable to cite where the authors of the constitution say that a regulated militia meansOnly the right wing appeals to ignorance of the law, regarding wellness of regulation for the militia of the United States.
I see you still are unable to cite where the authors of the constitution say that a regulated militia means
anything other than well trained and drilled.
I cited George Washington first state of the union address, and Alexander Hamilton's Federalist paper.
what have you cited so far?
And yet, you have not presented any contemporary sources to support your contention that thelol. I am not the one making up stories. Are you merely a story teller?
Article 1, Section 8.
And yet, you have not presented any contemporary sources to support your contention that the
phrase well regulated meant anything other than well trained and drilled.
To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the Militia, and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in the Service of the United States, reserving to the States respectively, the Appointment of the Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress;
lol. can't find the the clause?
Wellness of regulation must be prescribed by our federal Congress, for the Militia of the United States.
Only the right wing, spams with appeals to ignorance.
How do you not get that regulation in the above statement does not mean training and drilling?

If you are agreeing that "well regulated" means well trained and drilled, then what are you arguing about?Because it does. Only the right wing appeals to ignorance of our supreme law of the land.
His own expert opinion, of course.

lol. I cited our federal Constitution. Nobody takes the right wing seriously about Constitutional law.
The BoR amendments (1 through 10) were all meant to limit federal government power not to extend it.

did you know, the right wing is literally, incredible, whenever they present that argument. We have a Constitution, not just the amendments.
“Let me tell you why I’m a defender of the Second Amendment,” she began.
“I was a little girl growing up in Birmingham, Alabama, in the late fifties, early sixties,” she explained. “There was no way that Bull Connor and the Birmingham Police were going to protect you.”
“And so when White Knight Riders would come through our neighborhood,” she said, “my father and his friends would take their guns and they’d go to the head of the neighborhood, it’s a little cul-de-sac and they would fire in the air, if anybody came through.”
“I don’t think they actually ever hit anybody,” she continued. “But they protected the neighborhood. And I’m sure if Bull Connor had known where those guns were he would have rounded them up.”
“And so, I don’t favor some things like gun registration,” she said to a suddenly silent crowd.

It's a powerful story.
I do question how factually accurate it is. I tend to question any politician that pulls out on of these childhood memories that fit to perfect into a political position.
