“How grammar could help us better

understand the 2nd Amendment”

Interview with Frank Bergon on 91.5 KJZZ – October 23, 2023

The Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution has been debated, litigated and protested over the years. And, recent legal decisions, especially from the U.S. Supreme Court, have tended to fall on the side of gun rights groups.

But Frank Bergon says a grammatical reading of the 27-word text should lead to a different outcome.

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.

Bergon is a professor emeritus at Vassar College and in a piece for the Los Angeles Review of Books, he argues by diagramming the sentence, it becomes clearer what the framers had in mind for the right to bear arms. Bergon joined The Show to explain.
