Or has the American public so degraded the dictionary that "bear arms" only means guns?

why would you carry around brass knuckles? unless your going around looking to beat someone to death?? and the right to bear arms doesnt mean the right to bear brass knuckles?? lets see back a couple hundred years.. i dont think the continental army carried brass knuckles to fend off the brits.. they used guns.. and it wasnt today's American public who wrote the bill of rights... so how many innocent children do you know got shot by rounds that went through walls?? i know a person who was paralyzed by someone who jumped with brass knuckles.. and brass knuckles doesnt have an age requirement.. while firearms is 21 for handguns and 18 for rifles...
