The right to bear arms is unconnected to the service "DC vs Heller", not being a member of the militia . All citizens are the militia,"Georgia supreme court 1837". Here is a great reference if you are truly interested by David T. Hardy, Partner in the Law Firm Sando & Hardy.http://www.guncite.com/journals/senrpt/senhardy.html
Anti gun people will ignore historical evidence since it doesn't follow their agenda,hence the living breathing Constitution crowd. I too give up!
