Re:ACLU to help out? (Score 1)

Guido makes a common error in reading the Bill of Rights. There are many phrases in the Constitution which had slightly different meanings in the 18th century. "Well-regulated" commonly meant disciplined or trained at that time, not that there were laws or governmental regulations on an activity. That is, the Founders meant the militia (the people) should be experienced with firearms. It was, after all, the colonists' abilities with firearms and possession of those arms that allowed them to resist an 18th century superpower's army.
