Well put. Also natural law (aka common sense) indicates that a passably civilized nation has a certain right to safeguard itself, similarly to a householder's right to control who does and does not come into his house and what they are allowed to do there. The 2A merely ratifies a natural law based right to defend oneself. Apparently politicians and legislators are unable or unwilling to grasp this.
