Senate’s Vote on Gun Control
The Second Amendment to the Constitution reads: “A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.”
As we no longer find it necessary to have a militia, wouldn’t “the right to keep and bear arms” be unnecessary?
The pro-gun lobbyists should quote the entire Second Amendment, not part of it.
