Thanks man.
Also I don't think things are hopeless, I'm speaking purely abstractly and figuratively. I don't even own a gun. My family owns several, but they never come out of their thing, I would be better off running into the woods with a canteen and my hunting knife then trying to face down a squad of crazed goons P
But I think the idea for the amendment saying we should be allowed to keep guns is that force is addative. And it works in the same way as a nuclear deterrent.
You are absolutely right that we need to educate people and get them more politically aware, thats a better weapon then any gun we have right now. But thats now P and people are looking a bit far into the future with the original arguement.
