It was written to protect US citizen's right to have and use weapons. It gives them the right to protect themselves, their property and their country, and also against a tyrannical government...
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
Jesus Christ(who is my God
) in Luke 22:36
"Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and
he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one."
even Jesus Christ supported our right as free men to have a weapon to protect...
so [slap] right back at you
