The second amendment doesn't apply to state militias. It applies to people. Or more specifically, it applies to government by depriving them of the power to restrict a certain right.

Yes. They can't restrict the right for a state to form a militia. Which means it applies to state militias. I'm not sure why this is such a significant distinction.

Can it not apply to both people and state militias? I'm still not seeing why it has to be one or the other.

aye, agreed. Also worth noting (though you probably already do): Training your kids (if you have them)is wonderful but guns still need to be stored safely as your kids may have friends over who don't know the first thing about guns.

Can it not apply to both people and state militias? I'm still not seeing why it has to be one or the other.

Really? Why did you see only this post and not my other ones where I said that it applies to both, but only to individuals in the context of preserving a militia. Dammit, is this a conspiracy?

Very much agreed. As I have posted before, the first thing you teach a new shooter (child or adult) is safety and responsibility.

My long guns and the handguns stored in my safe have either a trig lock or a cable lock ran through the action and the ammo is stored in a lockbox as well, I'm deathly afraid of my girls getting ahold of one and its why I plan on teaching them firearms safety at an early age.
