..the purpose of the second amendment is to allow the citizens the ability to overthrow a rogue or out of control government...

Utter BS. Read about the War between the States.

Lincoln proved that even with half the standing Armies, the central government is too powerful for the individual citizen to threaten. Never gonna happen again.

Personal firearms -are- going to be useful for self-protection and order when a Sichuan style earthquake happens.

The feds tried pulling the "dynamic entry" BS on citizens in Waco & Ruby Ridge.

Very interesting that they didn't try such a stunt again for another 15 years.

Personal firearms -are- going to be useful when, not if, the coming clash/insurrection with La Raza rolls over much of this country.
Then the unarmed are going to die.
