The second Amendment is there so the people have the power to remove a corrupt government.Of course the people were also never envisioned as becoming dependent on the government for their food,shelter,clothing,medical care,schooling,and being tucked in at night!
What recourse do they have when the legislative branch becomes inept?
What can anyone do when there is no effective checks and balances in place?
Some speak of an impending Constitutional crisis. It's already here.
