"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."

This is the version of the Second Amendment as ratified and omits 2 commas present in the original handwritten document. The phrase "shall not be infringed" has been interpreted by the Supreme Court in D.C. v Heller to mean this right exists prior to the Constitution rather than being a right granted by the government. While the anti-gun lobby incorrectly interprets the "well regulated militia" phrase as the sole purpose for the right to keep and bear arms, that interpretation is contrary to over 224 years of law and common practice since the amendment was ratified. Changing this should require following Article V of the Constitution, but the anti-gun lobby continues to influence the judiciary to reinterpret the Second Amendment, thereby changing the plain meaning and understanding of the Second Amendment in an unconstitutional manner.
