The belief people will make a big enough bang over the removal of guns is naive.
As long as you can sip mountain dew and or beer smoke a cigg and watch tv when you get off work you won't care.

The Second Amendment say nothing about fighting off a tyranical goverment. It says
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.
The writers of the Constitution did not even consider armed rebellion a possiblity because they were creating a new type of Goverment that was the people. So people would not be rising up against themselves. Self defense and state miltias in an era when protection by law enforement and a standing army were non existant were the main motivation of second.

I already know about keeping a wrap on things as to not disturb the mentally weak into riots. Another reason why this will be brief.
The 2nd amendment was written so that the American people could arm themselves and protect themselves from tyrant governments and other acts of evil.
As the American people who are free to arm themselves have not fulfilled there right to protect themselves from such evils.
Why then should Americans reserve the right for guns?
You have all already let the government tell you time and time again what they will do when they will do it and basically said to your face whose gonna stop us.
Again if they remove your right to own guns a can of beer some cancer sticks and a little bit of depending on age tv, video games, internet will calm you down.
Make sure you have those items ready in your SHTF bag.
Not trying to start a revolution just telling those who say they fight tooth and nail to fight for American freedoms that your full of hot air and it's been proven 10 fold through the last decade.

As long as you have the right and freedom to speak out against the gov. You'll never take up arms against it.
Thank you for the buffers, don't know what I would have done with out them. I'm an unintelligent, level-headed individual.
So, every time the government steps out of line, individuals should use the guns they have against said government?
You're not trying to start a revolution.... Trust me, you're not going to be the catalyst hahahahaha.
Also, dissent can be running rampant... and people will take up arms against their government. Losing ones voice, freedom of speech and so forth would result in some taking up arms. But that doesn't mean that those even with the freedom of speech won't do the same.
Pretty much, everything you said was wrong.
