gun? Answer the question! Is not the "Bill of Rights" the Rights of an Individual? The fact is, gun owning Individual Citizens make up the State militia. Individuals come to- gether to form a armed force, in time of need. An example, the 13 militias from the 13 colonies in the days of the American Relvolution (the minute-men). The militia members are Individual gun owning Citizens. Furthermore, for over the last 200 years, the American way of life has set a precedent with an "Individual Right" of gun ownership.

( I say thisbecause, the federal government did not intervene in the gun's importation or subsequent sale. ) My view is better than my opponents view because, the 2nd Amendment in the "Bill of Rights" is intended to limit the power of the federal government, and not that of the States.
