Default Will everyone stop saying tic

No, it most certainly does not say that. The exact wording is:

A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free
State, the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be
infringed.


So the right to bear arms exists solely in the context of
maintaining a well-regulated militia.


No, it doesn't. People have a right to keep and bear arms, simply as one of
hundreds of rights that people naturally have. The government also has the
right to make reasonable restrictions on the ownership and use of firearms.

Unfortunately, neither side wants to understand these things.
