Looks like everybody is interested in trying to undercut Copperud's background, and nobody is interested in trying to refute what he said. Unsurprisingly, because they can't, as usual. So we get nothing but "The Constitution doesn't mean anything, because language didn't have any specific meaning back then, or it doesn't now, or something."
Poor leftists. Their talk gets crazier and crazier, the more they get backed into a corner. It gets to a point where they only way they can pretend their agenda is the right one, is by tossing out the entire English language.
What a hoot.....
In modern language, the 2nd amendment says, "Since an armed and capable populace is necessary for freedom and security, the right of ordinary people to own and carry guns and other such weapons cannot be taken away or restricted."
