The part in red is the part the NRA
conveniently forgets to mention:
A well regulated
Militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the Right of the People to keep and bear Arms shall
not be infringed.
This is
the reason they forget to mention it:
We have several WELL REGULATED MILITIAS: National Guard, US Military Reserves, and the Active Duty US Military.
The military at the time of the revolution was disbanded
between wars or emergencies, only called to active duty when needed. In the modern
world, the US Military is necessarily active at all times,
protecting your freedoms. They deserve your thanks. And you don’t need an
assault weapon.
