K Olbermann: 2nd Ammend. doesn't authorize ownership

Keith Olbermann (@KeithOlbermann) Tweeted:
NEW VIDEO: Whether or not you plan to watch tonight’s baseball All-Star Game, consider that they may have broken up a planned mass shooting there.

And ask yourself: why doesn’t the 2nd Amendment have the word “own” in it?

The 2nd Amendment does NOT authorize gun OWNERSHIP! https://t.co/cdfx4qg0WA

was that in an early draft of the constitution, the second amendment referred to clothing...the right to bare arms was meant to guarantee the right to wear short sleeve shirts.
Unfortunately, in the final copy, some anonymous gun nut changed the wording and that's why we are in this mess today.
