They knew taking up arms could lead to them losing everything, being wounded, dead, or something worse. they knew the armed conflict could destroy their state, they lived through it. They saw their weapons as key to overthrowing a tyrannical government. Even when Washington faced armed Revolutions they did nothing to restrict arms.

That's simply stupid.

Infringe refers to encroachment on a public or sovereign right – in other words, a right held collectively by the people as a sovereign body, like a State.

It's more that my ilk lives in a world that is not black and white.
Your ilk has a phobic aversion to shades of gray.
