'to some extent' is the key, to me.

The truth is that fanatics like the NRA steams from your second amendment right to "A well armed militia necessary for the security of the free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." They take the bear arms part and forget the militia part. I think that the two are dependent on one another, otherwise they would have made it a separate amendment or so. In these modern times, do we really need a militia? Apparently so according to the people in Michigan think so as they maintain a militia.
