i think its cute how so many people "know" what the constitution means and can speak of it in such absolutes when there are plenty of much more intelligent people who can't even come to a consensus.
i do enjoy Badnarik's absolute though. when it comes down to it, his interpretation of the 2nd amendment is the only one that matters.
I think the foundation for Badnarik's argument is much more philosophical though. Regardless of what the constitution says it doesn't grant rights, it just lists them. You'd have a right to keep and bear arms even without the second amendment.
