oh? I see nothing in that statement that would lead me to believe that every person must be a member of the militia. I do however see that no person's right to bear arms shall be infringed.

Not according to the Supreme Court.
See, I just don't understand the hacky "NRA wrote" stuff. They presented a case and the SC ruled. End of it.
I feel the same way about Abortion and the ACA garbage. The SC has ruled on it. Either the composition of the SC must change AND agree to hear / overturn established rulings...OR someone is gonna have to get an Amendment passed to alter the Constitution.
It is silliness to point at the prevailing side and pick out individuals or organizations and say "THEY DID THIS DASTARDLY DEED!"
Our system is set up so the the SC makes these rulings....deal with it.

Seems you don't know the definition of a militia and that Federal forces are specifically exempted under the relevant U.S.C.'s. State/Tribal LEA's are more-or-less paid militia members but that doesn't absolve nor replace the duties of the general public.

It's either denial or stupidity
