    I don’t give a shit what the intent was. Look at the text. Are you part of a well-regulated militia? No? Then stop cosplaying as a real soldier. You can enlist in the guard if you want to have pretend time.

      I don’t give a shit that you can’t parse English properly, commas matter.

      See, that’s the same structure. The part after the comma stands on its own and the part before is there to explain what’s up.

      It’s a natural right for everyone, the Constitution simply recognizes it and protects it.

        Those three words aren’t in there by mistake. You can play games with commas all you want but that will not make those three words vanish.

        You are not in a well regulated militia.

          The words don’t need to vanish, they are perfectly fine. They just don’t mean what you think they do.

              It means Nate Dogg is about to make some bodies turn cold.

              But for real though, you’ve already been told in this very thread. Do your own research if you’re genuinely curious how you’ve got this so wrong.
