Adrian Fontes on the Second Amendment

Here’s what the Second Amendment says, it’s: ‘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.’ Well, guess what? Article One, Section Eight clause 15 and 16. Here’s what a militia is. Here’s what it means. ‘Congress shall have the power to call forth the militia, execute the laws of the union, suppress insurrections and repel invasions.’

[00:03:37] The militia in the context of our constitution is enforcing the laws of the union. They work for the government, not against some tyrannical fantasy government. That’s not what it’s supposed to—. It says so right here.

[00:03:51] It also says that the Congress shall have the power to provide for organizing, arming and disciplining the militia. That means you get your militia arms from the government, you don’t buy them yourself. That’s what the constitution says.

[00:04:08] Then it goes on to say, ‘and for governing such part of them as may be employed in the service of the United States, reserving to the states respectively, appointment of officers.’ So it’s a whole unit. There’s discipline, there’s, they arm it. It’s organized under Congress’s rules, reserving to states appointment of the officers and the authority of training the militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress.

[00:04:30] Congress provides the rules for the militia. Congress provides the arms for the militia. Congress calls up the militia. You don’t just get to be a militia on your own.
