Second Amendment

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.

Do you read that as;

Militias have the right to keep and bear Arms.

or

A well regulated Militia shall not be infringed
The right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed

It's fun how a little comma can change how one interprets something.

Now off to the gym! ^^

Update: Was thinking of something while working out...

Now if a place of employment bans handguns does this not "infringe" on my right to bear?

If states pass a handgun ban, does not Article VI, Clause 2 Supremacy Clause kick in and override the state law?
