Assault Weapons Ban would be unconstitutional. "A State Militia must be maintained and well regulated"

And that is as wrong as anyone can get.
I tell you what you do go to someone who is using their second amendment right and you armed with only your first amendment right and see who comes out on top?
Criminals of the People get Infringed all the time.

Not at all true.
When a person is convicted and imprisoned, he still has rights and they can not be infringed.
When a person is incarcerated, they have a right to trial first, where it is ruled they are infringing on the rights of others, so their actions can be curtained. That is not an infringement of rights. They are allowed safety, food, religion, comfort, etc.
Criminals are not allowed weapons in jail, but they don't need them because they are protected by the guards.
A compromise between rights is not an infringement.
And infringement is an arbitrary restriction that does not necessary in order to defend the rights of others.
Arms are all that are being discussed. And, criminals of the people and the unorganized militia are infringed in the keeping and bearing of some types of Arms.
 
No, it isn't. It is about the security of our free States. It says so in the first clause.
The security of our free States demands in no uncertain terms that the RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED.
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State--that is what is demanded by a State.

How can you have a free state or any free states if there federal gun control over them?
The 9th and 10th amendments are clear, there can be no federal gun control because no article in the constitution authorizes that.
Because it is clearly outlined in our federal Constitution.

To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the Militia, and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in the Service of the United States, reserving to the States respectively, the Appointment of the Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress;
so congress needs to start handing out automatic weapons, the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed
Insist on getting organized.

The defense and protection of the state and of the United States is an obligation of all persons within the state. The legislature shall provide for the discharge of this obligation and for the maintenance and regulation of an organized militia.

Only if you're between 17 and 45 and eligible for the draft.

The whole point of the unorganized militia is that it is defined on a state by state basis, and can include everybody.
What you listed, "between 17 and 45 and eligible for the draft" are the restrictions on who can be drafted into the Organized Militia. The unorganized militia is everyone, the whole People, in most cases.
Which is proven by the fact women did take part in hostilities.
Women were not eligible for the draft, but did fight in the revolution.
And they were not executed as illegal combatants.

{... Sometimes they were flung into the vortex of battle. Such was the case of Mary Ludwig Hays, better known as Molly Pitcher, who earned fame at the Battle of Monmouth in 1778. Hays first brought soldiers water from a local well to quench their thirst on an extremely hot and humid day and then replaced her wounded husband at his artillery piece, firing at the oncoming British. In a similar vein, Margaret Corbin was severely wounded during the British assault on Fort Washington in November 1776 and left for dead alongside her husband, also an artilleryman, until she was attended by a physician. She lived, though her wounds left her permanently disabled. History recalls her as the first American female to receive a soldier’s lifetime pension after the war. ...}

You missed the big part of the unorganized militia members who are not connected with the national guard.

Both are part of the militia.

And why don't the Dems want to allow us all to possess and carry firearms which is our unalienable right under the Constitution?
Probably the evolution of the Colonial Militia's for common defense into the modern mechanize armies that ruled the attrition battlefields, to the global asymmetric warfare we are engaged in, combined with the evolution of the deadliness of personal weapons themselves.

But I think Scalia had it right in that there was an inherit right for personal protection granted the citizens, who were the Militia, and we need to add a new amendment to solidify and define that right and not rely on future court decisions.
 
A. We HAD a ban on assault weapons for 10 years. The Courts never ruled it was unconstitutional. It ended because it had a Sunset Clause written into it.

B. There exists strict regulations and even bans on machine guns....and those have not been challenged. That exists because of the inherent danger of those particular weapons of war.

C. The 2A says zero about self protection (leaving that to the states) . In fact the militia is also described in the body of the Constitution and describes it only as a military body (one use is to put down insurrections)

The Second Amendment does not mention an "unorganized militia".

Only due to your ignorance since it does mention well regulated militia. That is why nobody takes immoral false witness bearing right-wingers seriously in abortion threads.

The mention of a well-regulated militia or its necessity is not a bar to the people's gun rights.

So the right to keep and bear Arms is absolute and pertains to the whole people, each and every one of them, without exception or infringement.
