Well, this, according to the majority of Americans, is what the "right to bear arms" is really about: to be able to point them at government if government gets uppity. Like trying to organize a rescue.

You know my stance on guns: I detest them, plain and clear. Put them in the hands of the undereducated and over-egotistical and it just gets deadly. I know people who've died from a mixture of guns and stupidity: a guy in the grade above me in primary school was killed when his girlfriend thought his gun was a toy and shot him in jest. There is no reason why anyone apart from the police, the military and those in rural communities need guns.
