[QUOTE="Dukester, post: 2033321, member: 24607"] One of the major reasons that many people value the Second Amendment is supposedly that the right to bear arms is the right that protects all others. The problem I have with this is that it does not actually seem to protect anything at all. Despite the fact that we are a very well armed populace (for now), we seem to still be losing liberties left and right in addition to more and more of the money that we earn being taken away and given to those that choose to not work at all. And now the very right itself is being distorted and twisted in an effort to greatly minimize it and maybe even take it away completely in the future. Maybe I'm wrong but I think that the majority of Americans have no intention of taking up arms against the government and the few that might would likely be wiped out pretty fast. If this is the case, how does the right to bear arms protect anything where tyranny is concerned? When does America as a whole say enough is enough? Or do we just let "them" do as they will because its inevitable anyway? Maybe I'm just in a negative frame of mind with everything that has been going on lately. [/QUOTE]
