Just because someone else decides to become a criminal doesn't mean I should have my Constitutionally protected right infringed.
Also, the Supreme Court, 9 to 0, agreed that the dependent clause was irrelevant, and that the "individual" vs. "collective" interpretation was correct. They of course disagreed on what rights it confers, but the collective interpretation is as dead as can be (a terrible outcome from the millions of dollars the Joyce Foundation invested into trying to establish it).
