This guy's take should be destroyed every time it's encountered.
The completely ignorant application of a modifier to a noun not even in the same clause is pitifully dimwitted.
"Well-regulated" modifies "militia", not "right", and the mention of "militia" serves the sole purpose of explaining why the "right" is being guaranteed.
This "Militia" = "Right" nonsense is transparently stoopid, and those who espouse it should be shamed for being uneducated in the written English language. |

| Not to mention "well regulated" would have been understood to mean "well trained". |

TO REMEMBER |
| To have no proud monarch driving over me with his gilt coaches; nor his host of excise-men and tax-gatherers insulting and robbing me; but to be my own master, my own prince and sovereign, gloriously preserving my national dignity, and pursuing my true happiness; planting my vineyards, and eating their luscious fruits; and sowing my fields, and reaping the golden grain: and seeing millions of brothers all around me, equally free and happy as myself. This, sir, is what I long for. -- General Francis Marion, American War of Independence, Georgetown, SC [Source: 'Marion, The Life of Gen. Francis Marion' by M. L. Weems, Ch.18] |
