Assuming you are American, you are a member of the militia as that term is used in Article I and the Second Amendment. You may also qualify as a member of the legislatively defined “Unorganized Militia” if you are male, aged 17 to 45.
As a member of the militia, you are subject to being “well regulated”. What additional regulations do you feel you need imposed upon you in order to feel “well regulated”?
I would like to see training requirements. I want every person I ever meet to understand the legal standards under which force may be used. I think a class in high school on the laws governing the use of force would be extraordinarily valuable. I think such a class is sufficiently related to the militia’s purposes in “Enforcing law, suppressing insurrection, repelling invasion” as to justify a training requirement under that power.
I don’t think the 2A bumper sticker people forget the “well regulated” part. I think the people who focus on the “well regulated” part seem to selectively forget that they, too, are members of the militia.
People with second amendment bumper stickers on their trucks seem to selectively forget the “well regulated” part.

You provide an excellent example regarding training requirements. As part of those, I would also like to include safe use and home storage.
Yes, I’m American.
