The tragedy is that the extra wording in fact says very clearly--in the parliance of the time--that the reason for the amendment is to make sure the citizenry can constitute effective scratch infantry (well-regulated refers to drill and discipline in the fighting style of the day). It's saying specifically that citizens should be able to oppose a professional fighting force. AFAIC that means the 2A itself specifies we should be able to own anything. I should have an MG3 and RPG in my closet, you know, in case of trouble.
Most idiots also don't realize that fully-automatic fire has a very specific place on the battlefield; it's not some implicit lethality multiplier. But given the 10 moving boxes clipazine shoulder-thing-that-goes-up understanding we observe among politicians (as well as their nefarious, duplicitous intent), it's no surprise we are in the situation we're in.
