Are people who cite the 2nd Amendment honestly familiar with what it establishes?

All that to say, when I say I have studied the Second Amendment, what it says and what it means, I put as much time and effort into knowing the 2A, as I did Tennessee law and which firearm I chose for my first and why. I am intimately familiar with what the 2A established.

Now, my question for you, is are you honestly familiar with a what the 2A establishes?!?

I cannot speak for everyone who cites the Second Amendment, but I can speak for myself.

Ive been pretending to be okay and acting as normal as possible, but Im actually completely heartbroken after a recent breakup. Its painful and really affecting me, to the point where I cant concentrate at work, Ive lost my appetite, I cant sleep, and It feels as if my whole world has been turned upside down. I loved him so much. He said so many cruel things to me and it made me realize he must not have loved me the way I loved him, or he wouldnt have said such horrible things. How do I handle the heartbreak and why cant I accept that he didnt love me and just forget about him?

I grew up around firearms, when they were left on racks in pickups and displayed in wood and glass cabinets, much like a China cabinet. After high school, I joined the Navy and while I wasn't around firearms everyday, I was around plenty of firearms and have fired more different firearms than most in the military.

After I retired, I didn't feel the need to immediately acquire my own firearm and was more focused on transitioning and making the most of my civilian life. In 2021, I was living in Nashville, when protestors set fire to the Capitol building. The civil unrest gave me an uncomfortable feeling and I realized I was not equipped to protect my family. It was then that I decided I wanted a firearm. I spent six months or more researching firearms, ammo and laws relating to carrying a firearm in public. I had some missteps at work and was investigated related to owning a firearm. Twice I was asked questions during the investigation and already knew the law that answered the question, because I had already done my homework and I had acted legally. I did have to look up the number of the law in the Tennessee code so the investigator could verify the information I gave them.
