I don't want to turn this into a firearms thread, but it can be argues that the 2nd applies to the Federal Government.  Not the state or local governments.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

"May Dud."

Also, not to turn this non-firearms thread into a legal thread, but the Supreme Court long ago held that individual rights guaranteed by the first eight Amendments apply vs. the State sovereigns as well as the Federal one, under the 14th Amendment's Due Process/Equal Protection clauses even if they only appear to limit the power of the Federal Congress or Executive.
