Take a second and think about the BoR It was added as a after thought, to make the constitution more acceptable to the citizens that feared a powerful federal govt that would crush their rights.

Of course the 2cnd protect the individual.

If that is not true, the purpose of the 2cnd is to prevent the federal govt from disarming the militia charged with protecting the nation. Why would the BoR protect the militia from the federal govt.
