The infringed part they've got down pat; it's the "shall not"
they're having trouble with. The words People, Bear and Arms in
the same paragraph give them fits as well.
Personally I think we (as a Nation) have amended the Constitution
too much already. It means exactly what it says. The problem is
getting the socialist nanny-state types to admit it.
