Do we not have a 2nd amendment against tyrannical govt? No? I feel like the sycophants will give up their guns at this point. Thank you sir may I have another.
Yes and no.
If you are overthrowing the government then the regulated part makes no sense. The second amendment is for defending the country, not overthrowing a tyrant that was legally elected.
That's the canon side. The dogma side is very different, but irrelevant. All the liberty minded ammosexuals support the tyrant so they won't do a thing against them. Spent my whole life hearing how they were going to protect us from the camps. Now they are volunteering to build the camps. They said martial law was going to take their rights away. Now they are totally fine with no due process or habeas corpus.
Well you do need organisation for a revolution. Otherwise it's just a riot.
Riots are how things normally start. Rule of law becomes a memory and crowd dynamics take over. Then people try to put order to chaos for fun and profit.
Nah, riots are a tool, a distraction at most. Even partially successful revolutions were always organised.
I strongly urge anyone who can to learn how to safely own and operate a firearm for their own personal protection.
I heard Donnie was going to OK an add-on for full-auto on all guns, very useful in this situation.
