      Sounds like we are in agreement that the amendment is able to be changed to be relevant to modern interpretations.

        Nah, the militia bit was always a separate dependent clause (in the English grammar sense). It’s reasoning.

        The right shall not be infringed is an independent clause. It stands on it’s own. I know almost no one remembers elementary school, but independent vs dependent clauses are taught there. Anyone remember diagramming sentences?

          You mean, you have an idea in your head that you think should be enforced on everybody despite it not being democratically placed.

          The word for that is fascist. And it just so happens to be the right to deadly violence lmao.

          Irony is dead.

              And none of that applies to thoughts living in your head. You want to enforce your beliefs on everybody without any government process.

              Those beliefs is in regards to your right to deadly violence.

              You are a violent fascist who uses linguistics on democracy and constitutional republic to dismiss the violence you are advocating.

                  I recommend you read the thread if you are confused about the discussion.

                  We weren’t discussing a political process. We were discussing your headcannon of the 2nd amendment and how it aligns perfectly with the stance of a violent fascist.

          be careful with modern interpretations

          Man, I can’t get over you flip-flopping right here.

          You literally chimed in to insist upon a modern interpretation, then immediately said nobody else should do so.

          Conservatives are inherently incapable of honest debate.
