Sadly, the second amendment is pretty much useless. Without question, a big part of the reason for the second amendment was to prevent and protect against a government gone wild.

So I don't think some dude on his back porch with a .22 and 500 rounds is gonna do a whole lotta damage against a group that has full auto weapons, stun grenades, gas, night vision technology, etc, etc, etc.

Anybody who does think so is smokin somethin...

Then it's a good thing some of us own M-1's, AR-15s, AK's, Swiss K-31, Mosin-Nagant's, Remington 700's, M82A1's, M99's, S&W .460XVR's, DEagle .50AE's, Colt 1911's, ect...

BTW... I also own a good gillie suit, Gen II NVG's, and several other perfectly legal "toys".

However, a well placed shot gets you the full auto weapon, stun grendaes, gas, night vision technology, etc. of the former warm body carrying them.
Ever hear of the 'Liberator' pistol? It was crude, fired one bullet at a time, and the Allies originally intended to drop them all over occupied territory. The idea was simple: " Kill the soldier with the automatic weapon. Now you have his automatic weapon. "
Also, there is also the Battle of Athens, Tennessee to consider. The JPFO has it on their website.
