So you trust the State and Federal Government to protect and take care of you. The British citizens of the future United States trusted King George. You know where that got them. What about the Second Amendment don't you understand? Look at the placement of the comma and read it as it was written. Commas are important. 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. it says the right of the people, not the right of the government or Militia. Remember as goes the Second so goes the First and Fourth Amendment.
