Yes. We must regain our RKBA. Then fight the other battles. No one should vote for a Democrat or a Republican who does not vow to protect it. Anything else misses the point that "governments are instituted among men deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed".

Without arms, one has forever relinquished the ability to withdraw consent.

"Just the very existence of free people with guns, regardless of whether or not they will organize and rise up against government, keeps the government within limits."

I haven't noticed the government staying within any limits. A coworker asked me one time about something the govt. had done, "How can they get away with that?" I replied, "They can get away with exactly as much as we allow them to get away with."
