The Right To Arm Bears is Not an Amendment but the Right to Bear Arms is ----
The Second - - - right after the omnibus amendment asserting right to speech assembly press pettition and religion and following at third is the quartering of soldiers..

Clearly when one reads the list there was no thought that their order signified their significance.

The 2nd. The amendment that the Democrats want to get rid of.

2nd Amendment:

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.

Note that this does NOT say everyone has a right to own or carry a gun; it says two things: If you are in a militia, you can carry a gun, and the state can lay down laws to regulate that militia.

This is why the right to carry a gun isn't absolute. You may be subject to limitations on the type of gun, and how you store it, and when and where you can carry it.
