I got my definition at dictionary.com.  It was the last definition for the verb "bear"

"22. to have and use; exercise: to bear authority; to bear sway."

Perhaps it's a gun lover conspiracy to change the word to fit their favor?


If "to use" is not a legitimate definition of the word, I apologize. If that's the case, all government would have to do is heavily regulate ammunition if they really wanted to limit death by fire-arm. 

Although probably not in Idaho since its firearm amendment says:

"No law shall impose licensure, registration or special taxation on the 
ownership or possession of firearms or ammunition."

In otherwords, good luck regulating Idaho's 'militia.'

I doubt the founders intended for every person to be able to keep and bear arms.  At least they wouldn't want slaves and women to have that right considering the disparity of the day.  But they may have wanted militias to have access to the best weapons available.
