    The failure of the government to see the correct path has nothing to do with guns.

    So it's the government's job to "set the right path?"

    Get as many of your friends that have weapons together and march on city hall, take it over, and make your own country.

    If I had a few hundred thousand "friends" I think I'd have great success at this.

    The right to bear arms is a hold over from Militia America, back in the early days of the country, when an army was just as much a bunch of men with guns as anything else.

    Amd what are they now? A bunch of men with slingshots?

    But the days of the need or the effectiveness of militia are long over.

    Try telling this to the Mujahadeen, the Viet Cong, or currently the KLA. The truth of the matter is, guerillas will always prevail over conventional troops. And opressed people and/or zealots will always have the will to revolt.
