ND: Rob Port misrepresents the Second Amendment

The first words of the Second Amendment are “A well regulated Militia.” It does not say “anyone who wants to use any type of firearm for whatever purpose.” Columnist Rob Port might want to consider that. He might also consider that a CNN poll showed 67 percent approval of President Barack Obama’s proposed modest improvements to our gun policies including 63 percent of those in gun-owning households. It seems that the “dividers” would be those opposed to sensible firearms rules.
 
Comment by: PHORTO (1/30/2016)
Linderman displays the typical liberal drone misconception about how the word "militia" relates to the constitutional guarantee. "Militia" places no conditions upon the right, but it does guarantee access to military-pattern firearms by the people.

The Supreme Court so ruled in U.S. v. Miller (1939):

“With obvious purpose to assure the continuation and render possible the effectiveness of such [militia] forces the declaration and guarantee of the Second Amendment were made. It must be interpreted and applied with that end in view.”

Translation: The right to keep and bear AR15s and their genre are specifically protected pursuant to U.S. v. Miller.
 
 QUOTES TO REMEMBER
The said Constitution be never construed to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms. — Samuel Adams, during Massachusetts's Convention to Ratify the Constitution (1788).
