Do the words< “From my cold dead hands” ring a bell? I think this could easily become the motto of our next major political power in this country.

There are millions of vets out there who have spent the last 60 years opposed to socialism. Their ideals have not changed not has their mindset to defeat the socialist cancer on mankind. Each and every one of these vets has already sworn to uphold our constitution and our form of government. The second amendment issue might just be the needed spark to reunite them in this goal.
Our nation is under threat from socialism and it is not nearly as secure as the liberals in the cities think it is.
"The Second Amendment gives citizens the right to bear arms."

SCOTUS also agreed with you in 1875 in United States v. Cruikshank, 92 U.S. 542 (1875), the Supreme Court ruled that because “[t]he Second Amendment…has no other effect than to restrict the powers of the national government…”, meaning that the Bill of Rights is a list of restrictions on the government.
