Despite the 2nd Amendment, we don't let people carry guns and grenades on
airplanes either.


but it would help the government to have a better control if there would be
a gun regulation. you don't have something to hide, have you? no? so you
can register your guns with your government .. help your government fight
terrorism. you want to help your government fighting terrorism, won't you?

Sure, but someday you may have to defend yourself against your
government and hence the second amendment. The writers of the
constitution were well aware of this potential and thus they planned for it.
