    I read that to say that the right to bear arms is only so when a well regulated militia is needed to defend a free state. Given that it’s no longer the case, the right to bear arms does not exist- according to the 2nd amendment!

    It’s not void or irrelevant, it has infact predicted and enshrined into law that there is no right to bear arms anymore.

      Exactly. That seems to be the only reasonable way to read it to me. I don’t know why it’s never been contested on this premise in court.
