Of course the argument is there, the founding fathers were involved in this argument. Remember there were federalists who wanted a standing army and anti federalists who did not??


You NEVER use the militia argument when it comes to the Second Amendment, EVER! The courts have interpreted the militia to mean the National Guard. And the general populace has the stereotype image of the militia being a bunch of white redneck and racist guys dressed in as soldiers or in denim who plan nothing but overthrowing the government, like they're a terrorist organization bent on world domination.

We are talking about the 2A, which was introducted to protect the militia. The fact that you can go hunting legally has nothing to do with it. Hunting is not protected, but is legal.


It was introduced to protect our right to have guns as we please, nothing else! The whole reason the Second Amendment came about is because your acestors decided to disarm mine by overwhelming force.
