It doesn't matter if you're struggling with it or not as the supreme court has already ruled on it.

The majority arrived at this conclusion after undertaking an extensive analysis of the founding-era meaning of the words in the Second Amendment’s "prefatory clause" ("A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State") and "operative clause" ("the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed").

The majority analyzed the Second Amendment’s two clauses and concluded that the prefatory clause announces the Amendment’s purpose.

It ruled that the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution protects an individual's right to keep and bear arms—unconnected with service in a militia

No, the second amendment is designed to enable citizens to protect themselves in the event of an oppressive military.

Yes, you need a military to defend your country from other countries. And yes, it's to protect us from an oppressive government. Remember the revolutionary war lil buddy?

Can't wait for only billionaires and their armed thugs to be the only ones able to defend themselves
