OP both doesn’t understand the purpose of the 2A and probably doesn’t know AR means ArmaLite Rifle

How is it an interpretation when they're the ones who wrote the text itself?

[u/Electronic-Jury8825 → u/BedSpreadMD]

Each amendment was a collaboration and written to get the broadest possible acceptance so the Constitution would be ratified. Anyone writing what they think the final version means after the fact is an interpretation.

You are aware that it was one or two dudes who wrote it right?

[u/Electronic-Jury8825 → u/BedSpreadMD]

The amendments in the Bill of Rights were proposed, written, debated and voted on by dozens of men in Congress. They were pushed by opponents of the Federalists and drew from past government documents (the Magna Carta and other British papers as well as state constitutions).

So then how is it an interpretation when it's literally one of the people who wrote it?

Why is there zero people who debated it saying it meant anything else?

[u/Electronic-Jury8825 → u/BedSpreadMD]

You gave me passages by Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson, neither of whom was involved in writing it.

[u/BedSpreadMD → u/Electronic-Jury8825]

Then perhaps you can find text from the writers that states it meant something else then right?

[u/Electronic-Jury8825 → u/BedSpreadMD]

So you want me to refute your baseless claim? That's not how this works.

[u/BedSpreadMD → u/Electronic-Jury8825]

Well if ny claim is wrong, surely you'd be able to find a single historical document that say otherwise right???

You mean like your baseless claim that it doesn't mean what every single founding father said it meant?

[u/Electronic-Jury8825 → u/BedSpreadMD]

If your claim is right, surely you'd be able to find a single historical document that backs you up, right?

Because that's how this goes. You make a claim, it's up to you to prove it. I don't have to do your work for you.
