LETTER: Gun supporters quote only half of the Second Amendment
December 27, 2023 - 9:00 pm
In his Dec. 13 letter to the Review-Journal, Michael O. Kreps cites that part of the Second Amendment that states “the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.” I have never seen a pro-gun proponent recite the first part of the Second Amendment, which is “a well-regulated militia being necessary for the security of a free state.” Where is that “well-regulated militia”?
