The Second amendment has become a lethal fantasy and here's why: When it was written, everything was smooth bore musket or cannon or mortar, pretty simple pretty basic and there was at the time a chance that we could achieve force parity with a Tyrannical Government.

Asymmetrical warfare was pretty much invented at that time, here and in conflicts in Europe and Asia and later in Africa during the Boer wars. That being said, It doesn't really matter how many assault style rifles you have, when someone shows up at the party with a Reaper drone or an M134 Vulcan on a gunship or a Bradley, all platforms you cannot go out and buy or make on a 3d printer its going to be game over.

The other point we should always be aware of as we head down this dystopian rabbit hole is the essential query; " who you going to shoot?" That 18 yr old Guardsman, or the Cop or Sheriff who shows up with a search warrant?

The answer we learn from WACO, and the Bundys is yes, you will shoot the kid and or the LEO.
