Take it for what it's worth. Even though the Supreme court ruled that it is an individuals right to keep and bear arms, there are still states like Illinois that still believe otherwise. I know it is an extreme thought, but i feel it is only a matter of time before owning a gun by a civilian will be outlawed in the United States. After all.....President Obama's administration is packed to the gills with anti-gun radicals, (immanuel, sotomayer just to name two) who can't wait to have thier way with our guns. If you think i'm crazy try to buy Ammo. Try to buy a handgun. gun sales and Ammo sales have skyrocketed since the election of our new president. Makes me scratch my ass and say...hmmmmmmm i wonder why everyone is buying up guns and ammo so extremely? I KNOW....IT'S BECAUSE THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES COULD SEE IT COMING!!! ****************************************** The Second Amendment (Amendment II) to the United States Constitution is the part of the United States Bill of Rights that protects a right to keep and bear arms from infringement by the federal government, including federal enclaves and Washington, D.C.[1] The American Bar Association has described this right as among the most controversial of the rights codified in the Bill of Rights.[2] The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that an outright ban by the federal government on the personal possession, at home, of an operable firearm, such as a handgun, violates the Second Amendment.[3] The Court has upheld the constitutionality of longstanding restrictions on the personal possession of firearms, including handguns.[3] Below is a copy off of Wikipedia.

Every single time the framers referred to a power or right enjoyed by the federal government they used the word "power", and every single time they referred to a power or right enjoyed by the citizenry they used the word "right". In light of this consistency can anyone say the second amendment wasn't referring to individuals? The constitution doesn’t specifically state it anywhere, but the proof is in the usage.

Can you elaborate on that more? Where does it state this? A link would be helpful. You say they used the word “right” for people and “power” for government. Can you elaborate on that more?
