If they actually paid attention to the 'well regulated militia' part, it would pretty easily separate the people who join up and document themselves, and the unlawful gun holders that would be breaking the law.
It's interesting how they can ignore parts of the Constitution when inconvenient. They don't even really have to change anything, just admit that a well regulated militia requires background checks, limits on types of firearms allowed in the militia, and regular check-ins with the regulating body.
I also see a lot of the 'guarding ourselves against the government' talk. The government spends 800 billion a year on the military. What exactly are you supposed to do with a gun? And if you are going to defend yourself against the government, why are kids dying, when politicians would be the natural target. When is the last time a state congress got massacred to protect the regular American against tyranny? I call bull####.
