You don't even need to go into that to show the problem with his sig.
Here is the text of the 2nd:
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.
Now, allow me to change just a few words:
A well educated electorate, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and read books, shall not be infringed.
Does the above mean that only the well-educated should be allowed to keep and read books? Of course not. The second clause stands on it's own. If the founding fathers had intended for only the militia to reserve their right to bear arms, they would have said "the right of the militia" not "the right of the people".
I can respect arguments that gun control laws are a good idea. I cannot respect arguments that gun control is constitutional.
Social scientists are inspired by theories; scientists are humbled by facts.
