So, you are admitting, "the sporting gun clause is here to stay and the court case will not set a bad precedent" therefore it is a 2A win?
stanc Wrote:LOL, right back at ya. :p I guess you missed this part:
"That each and every free able-bodied white male citizen...shall severally and respectively be enrolled in the militia..."
It seems pretty clear that only (white) men were considered to be members of the militia, organized and unorganized.
And yes, women were citizens when the 1792 Militia Act was passed. Second class citizens who were denied the right to vote in every State but one.
I'm not sure if you are aware, but slavery, Jim Crow laws and women suffrage have long since passed. They are all now considered full citizens by golly!
