One could argue, and probably successfully, that when the government fails to act and instead cheers on rioting and violence in an effort to derail a sitting president... it would be construed as tyranny and THIS is exactly why people created the 2nd amendment. Does anyone think that King George III didn't use native populations to terrorize and harass colonists that wouldn't toe the Imperial line? They did... repeatedly. That, in addition to just sending marines over to occupy peoples' houses illegally, search and pillage with wanton abandon and beat, kill, maim or otherwise terrorize a population that barely had the means to defend itself from the advances.

So... When the US government, state and local agencies start working for the establishment cunts who see their viable positions at the levers of a functioning system to derail the rule of law and instead pursue a active path toward mayhem and chaos for political gain... do we have the right to defend out families, communities and selves from this advancing fake-horde? Yes. That's the underlying principal here; not whether or not people should be allowed to carry openly or have more than X number of rounds per magazine.

It's a win for self-defense as your once-trusted government cheers on and actively supports a rioting mob of violent assholes who are going to beat you to death if you try to put out a fire on your own house.

If anything, people need to be gathering up the means to defend themselves more now than ever.
