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.


People can (and do) debate the intent behind the 2nd amendment. But do you
(or anyone else) seriously think that the kinds of arms we are permitted as
US citizens provide ANY serious potential for defense against our own
government?

I know I don't. If that was the intent, the protection intended has long
been voided.
