Answer:

There should be no limits on owning and using guns.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Second Amendment was added to the constitution to protect people's right to keep and bear arms and the government's right to establish a Militia for the defense of the nation. Therefore, "There should be no limits on owning and using guns" is the statement that best interprets the statute because the statute is not specific enough, it can be broadly understood that since people have the right to own arms for self-defense, they also have the right to use them when there is a threat to their security.

The amendment states: 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.
