+151 (second amendment interpretation 109)

What does the Amendment give us in its part before the second comma? It gives us "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State"? Good answer but probably far from being sufficient for people behaving abnormally as it is here with this Amendment. The part before the second comma gives us a container, delimited by that comma, representing the existence in which the quoted text above was said. Therefore what the Amendment give us in its part before the second comma is not just the quoted text above but also the saying of it. By "saying" I don't just mean pronouncing or writing the words of that text. What I mean by that word is the process of generating that text extending from the root of that existence. This is what was meant with words like "active form" and "process" describing the contents of the two parts around the second comma, in the preceding two posts.
