The number of unarmed citizens (262,000,000*) slaughtered by tyrannical (mostly leftist, Marxist, fascist) governments during the 20th century would come pretty close to wiping out the entire U.S. population.
Our founders understood the danger of runaway government power and tyranny, thus the constitution guaranteeing our God-given liberty and severely restricting the powers of government. And they included the 2nd amendment for good reason. An armed citizenry guarantees it stays that way.
No, the 2nd amendment is not obsolete and never will be. The God-hating, America-hating, constitution-hating leftists will NOT be repealing the 2nd amendment nor will they be taking our guns.
Why? They don't teach it in government schools anymore so the snowflakes pushing for repeal or confiscation are ignorant, but we know. History repeats.

They also understood human nature and that it sometimes takes a long train of abuses before the people rise up.
Some of them are rubbing their hands in anticipation. They just can't wait to finally rid the country of conservatives.
I saw forum posts during the presidential campaign in which some leftists said they couldn't wait until Hillary won and "they" would start marching away conservatives. That sentiment keeps rearing its ugly head, even after the election.
#2 They all promised free healthcare and child support etc.

Was talking of Pol Pot just last night.
It doesn't matter if gun control is right or wrong, to some all that matters is that government has to protect them even when it can't and what they are asking of government will endanger them.
I have come to the conclusion that I will actively try to influence politicians against stupid gun control laws, work to elect the right kind of candidates and stop arguing with every looney liberal that wants gun control.
Life is just too short.
The number of firearms in the USA is more than one per person. Yes they are not distributed evenly, but there are over three hundred of millions of them. That would tie up all law enforcement and the courts for a long, long time just to collect them.
Then there is the pesky Constitution, so the lawsuits will go on forever if confiscation or extreme gun control measures are enacted.
The liberal would need to change the 2nd, 4th and 5th amendment to really confiscate all weapons and would need such a huge pot of money social welfare programs would need to be shut down. Politically it won't happen.
Where was this picture taken?
Rummel’s Death by Government.
A required read for every adult who values freedom.
Those are some real handsome role models. Salt of the earth.

Unless you count the naked and criminal violation of inalienable rights.

Saved liberals don’t stay around very long. They disappear/reappear dead often. I wouldn’t want to be saved if it was like that either.

We know SCOTUS will not defend 2A. That leaves it up to the DOJ.
Vindictive gun control advocates are no different than the KKK. Both are ignorant, irrational bigots, motivated by anger and hatred.
In the 60s, the KKK used various means, including violence and murder, in an attempt to prevent African-Americans from voting, or even registering to vote. The only deterrant ocurred, when the DOJ began prosecuting KKK members for civil rights violations.
It is time for Jeff Sessions to do the same, with anti-gun zealots, who seek to punish, and violate the civil rights, of millions of innocent Americans, for crimes they had no involvement it.
This goes far beyond the Second Amendment. Several members of Congress openly advocate violation of due process. Their desire is to punish and violate the civil rights of U.S. citizens, for what would be “pre-crime”(”Minority Report”), without a trial.
A.G. Sessions needs to grow a spine, and use the same tactics against Marxist gun-grabbers, which were used against the KKK in the 60s.
If something of this type isn't done, the Marxist left will never stop, and the Second Amendment will die a death of a thousand cuts.
Rant over. Flame retardent suit on. ;o)
Mussolini looks good.
Too bad it didn’t happen a lot sooner.
Funny.
Edited your own post...
LOL
“An armed citizenry guarantees it stays that way.”
The question is at what point do we call in our chits? What is the straw that breaks the camel’s back?
“A.G. Sessions needs to grow a spine, and use the same tactics against Marxist gun-grabbers,..”
Hell he is drawing up regs to ban bump stocks and god knows what else.
