+239 (second amendment interpretation 183: Alternative Argument for "free" and "security" )

Instead of the argument made in post 236 and the one below, for why the words "free" and "security" should be taken in relation to the world not internally, one could simply say this:
The relationship between two words in a description status could be that of a two way path. For example, the word moving in moving car and moving boat is not only describing the words car and boat but also getting itself described back differently. Moving in a car imply being on land while moving in a boat imply being on water. In other words, a different aspect of the word moving was selected depending on what it describes. Similarly, here, both "free" and "security" can be about internal or external freedom and security. Capitalizing the word "state" suggests selecting the external aspect of those two words.
