Not my fault the writers at Vox are so brain-dead retarded that they can't understand linguistic drift of a statement written near three hundred years ago.

This isn't really up for debate. Political scholars and politicians of the time write over and over and fucking over about how the second amendment should be interpreted, and it basically boils down to 'all free men should be armed'.

"Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are ruined.... The great object is that every man be armed. Everyone who is able might have a gun." - Patrick Henry, Speech to the Virginia Ratifying Convention, June 5, 1778
