Does anyone else get the feeling that these technical innovations in counter-insurgency warfare make the second amendment even more irrelevent than it already is when it comes to protecting against the government?

I’d think some type of polarized filter over the objective lens would defeat this pretty easily.

wow. technology gets more cool. I thought those micro-radar devices that can tell you where a bullet came from was cool.

Solution: a bunch of old 35mm camera lenses, bottom of old coke bottles, etc. hung from wires at different places.

No biggie, I can hit a 1sqft target at 1000m using open sights on my M1 Garand (learned to do it when I was in the Navy). Just have to know the ballistics of your round, how to judge and adjust for windage and elevation, and have a steady firing posture, and a decently accurate weapon.

Scopes are nice, but you shouldn't rely on them all of the time.
