RE: For Those Saying 2nd Amendment Only Applies to a Militia

in #life7 years ago

While guns are great for hunting and protecting our homes from intruders the intention of the 2nd amendment was to keep the government in check. To all these people who say "assault rifles" should be outlawed and want people to only have single shot muskets or something like that lol, if the government actually became tyranical, having a 6 round revolver or a bolt action rifle is akin to protestors in Egypt and wherever else trying to fight the government with stones. The government has so much technology and weapons that only a large number of citizens with AR's and the like would have any chance at keeping a tyranical government at bay.
