They're afraid that Americans will one day say "No more!" and they will turn their guns upon those in DC.

I believe that the primary reason for the 2nd Amendment was to assure that We the People had what was necessary to do that when push comes to shove. I also believe that our having that right, and the ability to enforce a reestablishment of Constitutional Government is why Push may not come to Shove for a while yet...but Obama et al keep testing to see how far they can go...They just might find out in a way not to their liking...
