could have some regulations regarding the bearing of arms for some individuals under some circumstances.

WHAT THE FRAMERS INTENDED: A
LINGUISTIC ANALYSIS OF THE RIGHT
TO "BEAR ARMS"
STEPHEN P. HALBROOK* (p3)

That to "bear" arms means simply to carry them was clear in a game bill
drafted by Thomas Jefferson and proposed by James Madison, draftsman of
the second amendment, in the Virginia legislature.' 4 The bill would have
fined those who hunted deer out of season, and if within a year "[the hunter]
shall bear a gun out of his inclosed ground, unless whilst performing military
duty," he shall be in violation of his recognizance. The game violator would
have to go back to court for "every such bearing of a gun" to be again bound
to his good behavior.15
