Re: Weapons?

The wording of the 2nd amendment given the meaning of the relevant words at the time (for example "gun" used to mean a non-portable projectile weapon, and "arms" used to mean hand-portable weapons), does sort of imply that larger weapons (battleships and the like) are not covered. Can you simply slide the new definition of "arms" into the 2nd amendment? I don't know.

Probably best to revise it <evil grin>
