It clearly was not. It was put there for emancipated slaves who had been denied citizenship. It was properly expanded to cover Native Americans who were members of their tribes but also subject to US law.

SFC Pete Kain - The 2nd amendment is to protect us from foreign invasion AND to overthrow a tyrannical Government of the US, should one arise. Plain and simple!

MSgt Steve Sweeney - I will partially agree with your musket and flintlock statement on one basis. At the time it was written the available weapons were muskets and flintlock rifles, But that is not what is used by the government today. The people have a right to be able to adequately defend themselves against the government.

SGT Anna Kleinschmidt - I did not say it covered Native Americans at the time but that it was expanded later on to cover them.
