Should the 2d Amendment be amended to remove the confusing first phrase?

First question I have is Justice Stevens actually old enough to have talked to the founding fathers to know exactly what they mean? This is nothing more than a roundabout way for disarming the american people. In no way shape or form should "we the people" that served / serve this country with honor and integrity sit idly by to let this happen.
I have thought about this problem for years as I, like everyone else have watched violence in this country go up.
As we let business and politicians make trade deals to take jobs away from the USA the unemployment goes up, people have no jobs, no money and no hope. the American dream has been moved overseas. We actually had a recent president say that the american people just need to get use to it.
Can we the people get this to change? Do we the people have enough in our ranks to try to change this?
What can be done to change the constant yammering from the news channels, from the new indoctrinating our youth are getting in the classroom? And by indoctrination I mean things like where if one kid is defending himself both kids get suspended in a fight.
How, with the violence and unemployment we have in this country can a whole party say their most important issue is how to make illegal aliens more comfortable and have better access to all the services this country has to offer?
I dont have the answer to these questions just a hope enough people in this country have a loud enough voice to make sure these issues do not get forgotten untill someone can change it for the better for all not just a few.

If everyone had learned to read and have a minimal understanding of the English language in grammer school there would be no reason to add or take away any verbage.

It's only confusing to those who haven't bothered to learn the history of period (1789-91) or who choose to remain willfully ignorant of it.

No... just simply put... no.

No! To convene a Constitutional Convention now would be to invite real insanity. The "Progressive Globalist-Socialists" would come out of the woodwork (as rats and roaches always do) and try to hijack the event. If they could, they would pass amendments to take away our individual rights and our nation's independence and sovereignty. I want the Bill of Rights and the U.S. Constitution to remain in force, and I don't want to live under some wretched, unelected multinational uber-government like the EU or the UN.

i see nothing confusing about the 2nd Amendment. i see some who for their own ends try to make others feel confused by raising a lot of spurious reasons as to why they think it’s confusing. It is not. It is simply stated. The well regulated militia to which it alludes is the local “minute man” groups of the day. Those were local farmers banded loosely together to fight together or individually to endure life liberty and property.

There isn't anything confusing about the second amendment unless the person reading it is just brain dead stupid!
A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people (the citizens of any particular state) to keep (own)and bear arms (carry guns of any type and caliber, anywhere, anytime) shall (absolutely) not be infringed!
The American people must demand that the government and the courts stop interpreting the constitution and instead enforce the constitution as it is written in plain simple and easy to understand english that a fifth grader can understand!

This is an excerpt from the Acts of the Pennsylvania's General Assembly in 1779. The Torries were British loyalist and supported the Brits and not the Colonist. This is BEFORE the Revolution was over, so one can understand why they should be disarmed, but check out what they were to have taken away. Does it seem from this document that KEEPING ARMS was LIMITED? No! because if the people are the last line of defense from a tyrannical Government or an Army gone bad, they should be equally armed and their foes.


"In 1779, the General Assembly passed a disarming act which was aimed primarily at Tories. It declared that "it is very improper and dangerous that persons disaffected to the liberty and independence of this state should possess or have in their own keeping, or elsewhere, any fire arms ...."[124]
The act empowered militia lieutenants to disarm any person or persons who shall not have taken any oath or affirmation of allegiance to this or any other state, and against whom information on oath shall be given before any justice of the peace, that such person is suspected to be disaffected to the independence of this state; and shall take from every such person any cannon, mortar, or other piece of ordinance, or any blunderbuss, wall piece, musket, fusee, carbine, or pistols or any other firearms, or any hand gun ... out of any building, house or place belonging to such persons.[125]

The only confusion of the constitution comes from the Democratic left . Leave it alone.

I think the founding fathers were very smart when it came to Human Nature, maybe smarter than we are today, leave it alone.
