re: #241 Dark_Falcon

Sometimes that may be needed, but phrases such as “shall make no law” or “shall not be infringed” have not changed in their meaning. Very little, if any, of the Constitutions words have changed in their meaning. Some may have gained other meaning, but they have not lost their original meaning.

“Because a militia is needed” ???

Now we have a standing army.

But the 2nd Amendment is just as valid as the day it was written.

We’ve come to interpret the “because a militia is needed” as self-defense.
