It very much is about you doing your homework. You need to have a certain level of prerequisite knowledge about history at the time of Madison et. al., and you seem to lack that.

The only reason you perceive what I've written as rudeness is because you're bringing your ego to bear on this conversation, not your intellect.

Further, what you are attempting to do is akin to a zip bomb. "Spend hours crafting a response for me so I don't have to do any research or provide any understanding of my own, please!"

Gladly, but my rates are ~$500/hr. Let me know how you'd like to proceed!

You said the problems that the 2nd Amendment addressed are no longer relevant; but you did not say what you think those problems are. If it took hours for you to clarify that...it would be strange.
