The morality and hypocrisy of of the men who conceived the ideas has no bearing on the ideas themselves. The ideas are important, not the ideals of the men or the time.
Gun ownership is a right granted by the second amendment given the way i interpret the statement. I do wonder about the decision to word the 2nd differently than any of the other amendments, but even so the intent, to me, is clear. Madision et al were clearly able to express their ideas in a direct and straight forward manner, and that there is only one such statement in that 2a.....i'll take it.
