Wouldn't it be nice if the law was written clearly and concisely? Something along the lines of "The right of the people to keep AND bear arms shall not be infringed." Something like that should be allot less confusing.

Don't be silly. That sounds like something old white men would have written.

We need a modern constitution written with the help of women, blacks, gays, Muslims and Chinese you racist sexist bigoted transphobes.

Laws are written by politicians. And sometimes, they are written (and subsequently amended) in a way that is obtuse to avoid triggering opposition until it's too late. I've personally seen that happen in my state.

Other times, I think they are written to make work for their lawyer friends.
