The 2nd Amendment was added to the constitution to protect <u>American citizens' right to keep and bear arms. </u>

The Second Amendment (December 1791) is one of 10 amendments that are part of the Bill of Rights, it states the following:

<em>"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."</em>

Even though the statute aimed to support the rights of self-defense or defense of the state and resistance to oppression in more hostile times, it is still debated nowadays, regarding whether it protects a private right of individuals or militia organizations to keep and bear arms.
